Publication number: 20230291815Abstract: An information exchange platform receives a file from a client system and processes the file for delivery to a trading partner (TP) of the client system. The TP does not need to be a client of the information exchange platform. So long as the file has some identifying information such as an email address that uniquely identifies the TP within a custom solution for the client system, the information exchange platform can automatically and programmatically provision the TP. An auto-provisioning subsystem is operable to create and/or configure information needed to complete the processing of the file just in time, including creating a legal entity and a routing address for the TP. When completed, the file is processed into a deliverable, which is then provided for delivery to the TP just in time as the file is received from the client system.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 15, 2023Publication date: September 14, 2023Inventors: Jeffrey Wayne Barton, Waqas Ahmed, Ricardo Ceppi

Publication number: 20230222020Abstract: An any-to-any (A2A) connector system provides an A2A integration framework that includes an ingress router, a connector system, and enhancements to an orchestration service framework of an information exchange platform. At design time, an application programming interface (API) connector can be generated based on API documentation for the external service. At runtime, in processing an itinerary that includes a universal service, the external service is called through the universal service using the API connector. The universal service is operable to parse a request from a client system, query a connector database, and, based on a result from the connector database, sends a request to a connector engine. The connector engine fetches the API connector from the connector database, calls the external service using the API connector, handles results of the call, and returns the results to the universal service.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2022Publication date: July 13, 2023Inventors: Waqas Ahmed, Jeffrey Hamilton, Saravanan Palanisamy

Patent number: 11657617Abstract: A system may generate image data of users within a facility. Such users may be part of a group that is unknown to the system. The system can predict group data for two or more users based on a resemblance or the users being within a threshold distance of each other. However, if a confidence level associated with the predicted group data is below a threshold value, the group data is deemed unreliable and assistance from an associate is deemed necessary. A user interface that includes a portion of the image data, information about the predicted group data, and other interface elements is presented to the associate via a display. Based on the input data received from the associate, the group data can be confirmed or rejected. If the group data is confirmed, an association is made between the users and a group identifier.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2022Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Thomas Meilandt Mathiesen, Maren Marie Costa, Nishitkumar Ashokkumar Desai, Christopher Richard Fescoe, Casey Louis Thurston, Jason Michael Famularo, Sudarshan Narasimha Raghavan, Waqas Ahmed, Danny Guan

Patent number: 11250272Abstract: In one or more implementations, groups of users enter a facility within a short time. Automated systems attempt to predict a grouping for various users, but the predicted grouping may not exhibit a confidence level above a certain threshold level. In such cases, a user interface is generated and presented to an associate to confirm the grouping of users. The user interface includes an image gallery and interface elements that allow for the selection of users into a group. The image gallery includes previously stored images of users, such as images obtained during a registration process or during a previous visit to the facility. In addition, the user interface also includes image data obtained from a camera at the facility depicting visitors at various times or locations. Once a grouping has been selected or confirmed by an associate, group data may be generated and stored for the group of users.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2019Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Thomas Meilandt Mathiesen, Maren Marie Costa, Nishitkumar Ashokkumar Desai, Christopher Richard Fescoe, Casey Louis Thurston, Jason Michael Famularo, Sudarshan Narasimha Raghavan, Waqas Ahmed, Danny Guan
