Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for resilience testing using a DEW. A system includes at least one hardware processor coupled to a memory and configured to decode a workflow to obtain a plurality of workflow steps. Each workflow step of the plurality of workflow steps includes a runtime engine identifier and a script identifier. A script for a workflow step of the plurality of workflow steps is retrieved based on the script identifier. The script specifies a plurality of tasks. One or more containers are configured with a runtime engine based on the runtime engine identifier. The script executes against the one or more containers using the runtime engine, to perform the plurality of tasks.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for processing a script file generated using a declarative engine for workloads (DEW). A system includes at least one hardware processor coupled to a memory and configured to retrieve a script file. The script file specifies a plurality of tasks forming a plan and an order of execution for the plurality of tasks. The script file is compiled to generate compiled code. The compiled code is executed to generate an in-memory representation of the plan. The in-memory representation of the plan is converted into a graph such as a directed acyclic graph (DAG). The graph includes the plurality of tasks. The plurality of tasks in the graph are executed according to the order of execution.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for resilience testing. A system includes at least one hardware processor coupled to a memory and configured to decode a workflow to obtain a workload specification and a failure experiment specification. A first set of containers is configured to execute one or more workloads on a testing node. The one or more workloads are defined by the workload specification. A second set of containers is configured to execute one or more failure experiments on the testing node. The one or more failure experiments are based on the failure experiment specification. Execution of the one or more failure experiments triggers an error condition on the testing node. A notification is generated based on at least one metric associated with execution of the one or more workloads and the one or more failure experiments.

Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for resilience testing. A system includes at least one hardware processor coupled to a memory and configured to decode a workflow to obtain a workload specification and a network experiment specification. A first set of containers is configured to execute one or more workloads on a testing node. The one or more workloads are defined by the workload specification. A second set of containers is configured to execute one or more network experiments on the testing node. The one or more network experiments are based on the network experiment specification. Execution of the one or more network experiments triggers an error condition on the testing node. A notification is generated based on at least one metric associated with execution of the one or more workloads and the one or more network experiments.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, generally, methods and systems for managing connections within a connection pool. The method includes initializing a plurality of connections. The plurality of connections are configured to pierce a firewall. The method further includes placing the plurality of connections in a connection pool, and storing creation times for each of the plurality of connections. The method then determines the firewall's connection teardown time period and, based at least in part on the firewall's connection teardown time period, setting the connection pool's connection teardown time period to be at least less than the firewall's connection teardown time period.

Abstract: A method of manipulating one of a plurality of branches of a menu structure within a window of a menu editor in a graphical user interface is described. A handle associated with a first branch of the plurality of branches is provided. The first branch is associated with a first menu item of the menu structure. The handle is selected. The first branch is moved in response to a cursor control device to associate the first branch with a second menu item of the menu structure. The first branch is disassociated with the first menu item. The first branch is associated with the second menu item of the menu structure.
