Abstract: Techniques are provided for maintaining snapshots of state information for a plurality of resource entities, within a distributed cloud service. A first snapshot of state information for the plurality of resource entities is maintained at an endpoint in persistent storage. A request to modify resources allocated to resource entities is received. A virtual lock on the state information reflected in the first snapshot is obtained. Upon obtaining the virtual lock, a service determines, based on the first snapshot, that there are available resources to perform the request to modify resources. A second snapshot of the state information, reflecting the modification of resources allocated to resource entities, is then generated and stored at the endpoint in persistent storage. The virtual lock on the state information is released and the resources allocated to the resource entities are modified according to the request.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for live memory recovery using a pluggable memory module are described herein. It may be detected that a spare memory module has been inserted into a computing device based on a signal transmitted from the spare memory module. The spare memory module may be initialized. A dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) module of the computing device may be identified that is predicted to fail.

Abstract: A method, a master database node and a subscriber database node for optimizing an index. The method for optimizing index includes: checking, by a master database node, if role information of an index matches role information of the master database node, when the index is added into the master database node; updating database information by using the index when the role information of the index matches the role information of the master database node. In this invention, unnecessary indexes in the master database node and the subscriber database node are reduced while keeping the schema the same. Furthermore, unnecessary logs transmitted from the master database node to the subscriber database node are reduced.

Abstract: Technologies for fast low-power startup include a computing device with a processor having a power management integrated circuit. The computing device initializes platform components into a low-power state and determines, in a pre-boot firmware environment, the battery state of the computing device. The computing device determines a minimum-power startup (MPS) configuration that identifies platform components to be energized and determines whether the battery state is sufficient for the MPS configuration. If sufficient, the computing device energizes the platform components of the MPS configuration and boots into an MPS boot mode. In the MPS boot mode, the computing device may execute one or more user-configured application(s). If the battery state is sufficient for normal operation, the computing device may boot into a normal mode. In the normal mode, the user may configure the MPS configuration by selecting features for the future MPS boot mode. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
