Patent number: 11861386Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing an application-level gateway to an on-demand network code execution system. An on-demand network code execution system may allow users to submit code to be executed in a serverless environment, and may provide an interface for executing the user-submitted code on demand. The interface may require that users authenticate, provide input in a particular format, or meet other criteria when sending a request to execute the code. An application-level gateway may thus provide an interface that implements these functions, thereby allowing computing devices to interact with the code as though it were running on a server (e.g., by using HTTP). The application-level gateway may also use on-demand code execution to provide load balancing for servers that are running the user-submitted code, and seamlessly provide access to code that runs on both server-based and serverless environments.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2019Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Lodaya Varun Mukesh, Sridhar Srinivasan, Hamza Arain

Publication number: 20230281183Abstract: The boosting of the weights related to imperfect matches of electronic records from disparate sources is discussed. The imperfect matches may be in primary data (such as a code) and/or in supplemental data between two or more records that correspond to the same person (such as a patient). The imperfect matches are analyzed to determine whether they are sufficient to warrant de-duplication of those imperfect matches in a final combined record for the person. The boosting of the weights may be based upon any of numerous factors, such as various distance measures between the supplemental information as a measure of how different the supplemental information is between the respective records.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 1, 2022Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Anand Parameshwar SHANBHAG, Srinidhi KUMBLE, Sridhar SRINIVASAN

Patent number: 11748009Abstract: Various embodiments, methods, and systems for erasure coding with overlapped local reconstruction codes, are provided. An erasure coding scheme can be defined based on Overlapped Local Reconstruction Codes (OLRC) that achieve high storage efficiency by providing fault tolerance properties that optimize reconstruction for common cases of failures while maintaining the reconstruction costs for uncommon case of failures. In operation, a data chunk is divided into data fragments. The data fragments correspond to zones. A plurality of parity fragments is computed using the data fragments. A parity fragment is computed using a subset of the data fragments. The plurality of parity fragments are assigned to the zones comprising the data fragments, where the data fragments and the plurality of parity fragments define overlapped local construction codes having a plurality of local groups. An unavailable data fragment is recoverable from at least two local groups from the plurality of local groups.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2018Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jianfeng Zhu, Yiheng Tao, Cheng Huang, Aaron William Ogus, Yilong Zhao, Terry Chen, Zhenshan Yu, Tejas Shah, Sridhar Srinivasan
