Abstract: Methods and systems identify and redact PII. A PII sensitivity detection framework includes multiple layers where each layer corresponds to a model. The framework analyzes data stored within different data tables and predicts whether a data column includes PII. The first layer corresponds to an AI model that analyzes each column metadata and predicts a first score indicative of a first likelihood of PII existence. The second layer corresponds to a rule-based model that uses various rules to determine a second score indicative of a second likelihood of PII existence for each column. The third layer corresponds to a column content model that analyzes content of each column using various natural language processing techniques to generate a third score indicative of a third likelihood of PII existence. The framework masks data presented to a user based on the scores generated via execution of one or more of the layers.

Abstract: One or more structural equations modeling a physical process over time may be sampled using simulated parameter values to generate input data signal values. A noise generator may be applied to the input data signal values to generate noise values. The noise values and the input data signal values may be combined to determined noisy data signal values. These noisy data signal values may in turn be used in combination with one or more states to train a prediction model.

Abstract: A computing resource monitoring service obtains a request from a third-party partner system to generate a first bus. In response to the request, the computing resource monitoring service updates an account associated with a customer of a remote service to indicate presence of the first bus. The computing resource monitoring service activates the first bus to establish an association with a second bus, obtain a set of events generated by a resource of the third-party partner system, and provides the set of events to the first bus. The computing resource monitoring service publishes the set of events to cause the second bus to distribute the set of events to another remote service.

Abstract: Described embodiments provide systems and methods for selecting communication paths for applications sensitive to bursty packet drops. A device intermediary to a client and a server may identify an application for which packets are to be communicated between the client and the server.

The device may estimate, for each path between the client and the server for communicating the one or more packets, a path quality for the path indicating a likelihood that the network disruption affects the one or more packets. The device may select path for communicating the packets based on the sensitivity level of the application and the path quality. The device may communicate the packets between the client and the server via the path.

Abstract: A distributed system may implement evaluating placement configurations for distributed resource placement. Placement requests for a partition of a distributed resource may be received. An evaluation of prospective placement configurations of the distributed resource is performed that locates the partition at different resource hosts. In some embodiments, placement configurations may be analyzed with respect to infrastructure zone locality. Multiple infrastructure zone localities may be analyzed and combined to evaluate prospective placement configurations. Prospective placement configurations may be analyzed with respect to other criteria, such as resource host utilization data. Based, at least in part, on the evaluation of the prospective placement, a resource host is identified for placing the partition.
