Abstract: The disclosed system implements techniques to secure communications for injecting a workload (e.g., a container) into a virtual network hosted by a cloud-based platform. Based on a delegation instruction received from a tenant, a virtual network of the tenant can connect to and execute a workload via a virtual machine that is part of a virtual network that belongs to a resource provider. To secure calls and authorize access to the tenant's virtual network, authentication information provided with a call from the virtual network of the resource provider may need to match authorization information made available via a publication service of the cloud-based platform. Additionally or alternatively, an identifier of a NIC used to make a call may need to correspond to a registered name of the resource provider for the call to be authorized. These checks provide increased security by preventing unauthorized calls to the tenant's virtual network.

Abstract: Techniques of network virtualization of containers in cloud-based system are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a selection of a host in the computer system to instantiate a container in response to a request from a user. In response to the received selection, the method includes identifying parameters of network operations on the selected host to instantiate the requested container and assigning a network address to the container to be instantiated on the selected host in the computer system, the assigned network address is addressable from outside of the selected host without network name translation. The method can then include transmitting an instruction to the selected host to instantiate the requested container based on the assigned network address.

Abstract: System and method for applying presentation templates with image animation to presentation documents. A processor identifies a presentation document including an image and identifies a characteristic of the image. The processor further selects a presentation template with image animation from a plurality of available presentation templates. The selection of the processor is based on the characteristic of the image. The processor further applies the presentation template with animation of the image to the presentation document to define animation of the image. The processor then outputs the presentation document with the presentation template applied.

Abstract: Methods and devices for performing remote control are provided. The method includes displaying at least one icon for controlling one or more functions provided by a second device; recognizing a gesture of a user, obtaining a control command for controlling one of the one or more functions provided by the second device based on the recognized gesture and the displayed at least one icon, and transmitting the obtained control command to the second device.
