Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system are provided for container cross-cluster capacity scaling. The method includes broadcasting local capacity information of capacity availability or capacity requirement for the local cluster and receiving broadcasts from each of one or more other clusters providing capacity information including capacity availability or capacity requirements. The method may map the received capacity information with the local capacity information and may determine a suitable cross-cluster capacity sharing when a capacity requirement of the local cluster maps to a capacity availability of another cluster or when a capacity availability of the local cluster maps to a capacity requirement of another cluster. The method may coordinate the deallocation of a node from the cluster having the capacity availability and reallocation of the node to the cluster having the capacity requirement.

Abstract: Systems, methods and/or computer program products for dynamically generating interactive content at an edge node of an edge network. For each set of video frames received, altered frames cached by the edge network can be fetched (when available) and reused to deliver interactive content to users. Where cached content is not present or distinctly different content from previously delivered content is intended for delivery to user(s), edge node identifies hotspots within video frames to insert interactive content, defining a timing and location for insertion, selects content consistent with user insights and/or preferences as well as an interaction types and placements known to be preferred by the user requesting the video frames. The edge node uses video creation services to alter the incoming video frames into altered video frames, inserts selected content at corresponding hotspots within the video and applies the interaction types for presenting the content to the user.

A user profile of the user is analyzed to determine one or more sources for responding to the query. The user profile includes a set of trusted sources for the user. Data for responding to the query is retrieved from the one or more sources. A channel for a response is selected based at least in part on the user profile. The response to the query is generated. The response is generated using the retrieved data, the selected channel, and the user profile. The response is then transmitted to the user.
