Abstract: Systems and methods for extracting data from electronic documents using optical character recognition (OCR) and non-OCR based text extraction. A server computing device initiates non-OCR based text extraction for each page of an electronic document. The server calculates a document text coverage percentage corresponding to the non-OCR based text extraction for the whole document and, in response to determining that the document text coverage percentage is below a first threshold, initiates OCR for the document. The server calculates a page text coverage percentage corresponding to the non-OCR based text extraction for one or more pages of the electronic document and, in response to determining that the page text coverage percentage is below a second threshold, initiates OCR for the pages. The server combines first text extracted from the electronic document using non-OCR based text extraction and second text extracted from the electronic document using OCR.

Abstract: One or more aspects of the method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium include obtaining an image and a detail level, wherein the detail level comprises a value indicating a level of detail for a description of the image. One or more aspects of the method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium further include identifying a set of regions for the image based on the detail level using a machine learning model, and generating a description for the image based on the set of regions, wherein an amount of detail in the description is based on the detail level.

Abstract: Examples allocating resources to virtual network functions (VNFs). Some examples include monitoring information associated with a set of VNFs that includes a set of VNF instances. A resource allocation event may be predicted for a VNF instance based on the monitored information and a resource flexing model that is developed using a capacity metric of the VNF instance. A resource flexing plan may be generated based on the resource allocation event and an order of the set of VNFs in a service function chain.

Abstract: Examples of federated virtual datacenter apparatus are described. In an example, at least two virtual datacenter instances are provided in respective different network broadcast domains and an overlay network encompasses the respective different broadcast domains. An Internet Protocol (IP) address manager assigns IP addresses network devices associated with the plurality of virtual datacenter instances so as to avoid IP address conflicts between virtual datacenter instances.

Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which is stored machine readable instructions that when executed cause the processor to receive first data from a first data provider in a cloud platform, receive second data from a second data provider in the cloud platform, the second data being a different type of data than the first data, and the first data and the second data pertaining to network elements in the cloud platform. The instructions may also cause the processor to normalize the first data and the second data and based on an analysis of the normalized first data and the second data, identify an action to be executed in the cloud platform. The instructions may further cause the processor to instruct a dispatcher to execute the action.

Abstract: Examples provided herein describe a method for managing virtualized network service bundles. For example, a physical processor may implement machine readable instructions to receive a first data packet in a virtual network, determine a first type of the first data packet, determine a first active virtualized network service bundle instance associated with a first virtualized network service bundle that handles the first type of data packet, and direct the first data packet to the first active virtualized network service bundle instance. In some examples, the first virtualized network service bundle may comprise a first set of virtual network functions, and the first virtualized network service bundle may be associated with a set of active virtualized network service bundles instances, where the set of active virtualized network service bundle instances may comprise the first active virtualized network service bundle instance.

It is determined whether an application can execute in a first network based on information associated with the first network. The application is transferred to a second network, if it is determined that the application cannot execute in the first network. A secure connection is established between the application transferred to the second network and the data residing in the first network.
