Patent number: 11483199Abstract: Disclosed are various examples for facilitating enrollment of a client device into more than one management framework. A client device can be enrolled with a management service as a fully managed device. The client device can also be enrolled with the management service as a personal or bring-your-own-device (BYOD), which causes a workspace to be created on the device that is segregated from the rest of the client device. Both enrollments can be managed by a remotely executed management service.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2021Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Gaurav Verma, Suchit Shivashankar, Karthikeyan Palanisamy

Patent number: 11469965Abstract: Techniques for deploying, monitoring, and modifying network topologies operating across multi-domain environments using formal models and weighting factors assigned to computing elements in the network topologies. The weighting factors restrict or allow the movement of various computing elements and/or element groupings to prevent undesirable disruptions or outages in the network topologies. Generally, the weighting factors may be determined based on an amount of disruption experienced in the network topologies if the corresponding computing element or grouping was migrated. As the amount of disruption caused by modifying a particular computing element increases, the weighting factor represents a greater measure of resistivity for migrating the computing element. In this way, topology deployment systems may allow, or disallow, the modification of particular computing elements based on weighting factors.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2021Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Sridar Kandaswamy, Sebastian Jeuk

Patent number: 11467925Abstract: Systems and methods to export a database to a native database recovery, environment are described. The system includes a native database recovery environment that includes a target host. The target host receives file information and script information, over a network, via directories from a backup host. The backup host utilizes foreign snapshot files and foreign incremental files to store the file information in the foreign database recovery environment. The file information includes native snapshot files and native incremental files. The script information includes scripts that are executed by the target host in the native database recovery environment. The target host executes the scripts to mount the directories, open the database, restore the database, recover the database to a point-in-time, and unmount the directories.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2020Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Rubrik, Inc.Inventors: Snehal Arvind Khandkar, Yongbing Guo, Udbhav Prasad, Ganesh Karuppur Rajagopalan, Pandian Raju
