  • Moving nodes in a distributed system
    Patent number: 11303499
    Abstract: Techniques for improving communications efficiency between pairs of communication nodes running within a computer system are described herein. Potential locations for placing a communication node are evaluated using one or more fitness values wherein the fitness value is based at least in part on one or more system metrics associated with placing a communication node in the potential location. If an improved location is found based on the fitness value, the communication node may be migrated to the new location, thus improving system efficiency.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 5, 2019
    Date of Patent: April 12, 2022
    Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Paul William Berg, Christopher Dunn, Alex Jennifer Tribble, Tristan Daniel Fries Wilson, Zachary Jared Wiggins

  • Machine generated service cache
    Patent number: 9245232
    Abstract: A machine generated service cache that utilizes one or more machine learning classifiers is trained using service requests directed to a human-generated service and service responses generated by the human-generated service in response to the service requests. Once the machine generated service cache has been trained to a predetermined level of performance, the machine generated service cache can be utilized to process actual service requests directed to the human-generated service. The machine generated service cache might be utilized to process service requests for which it is not essential that the returned service response be identical to a response that would be generated by the human-generated service.
