International Classification:

G06F 15/173

US Classification:

709223, 709225, 717107

Abstract:

A network device management application may manage a number of network devices. When managing the network devices, the management application may receive requests from administrators to modify a configuration of the network devices. In response, the management application may apply the requested modification to a model of the network device and synchronize configuration information of the model of the network device to the configuration information of the real network device using a configuration-based state machine.

Abstract:

The present invention discloses Virtual Card Mobile App (VCMA) as a medium for replacing real world commercial wallet cards. VCMA furnishes a consumer with a UVC service, which enables a consumer to easily obtain, manage and use Vendor Virtual Cards (VVC) that are offered by vendors. VCMA allows users to carry unlimited number of virtual cards from unlimited number of vendors. VCMA makes it much easier and more secure for a user to sign up, carry, manage and use a card. It also enables user to perform many functions, such as checking balances, checking rewards, searching specials, checking product info, ordering products, and making payments. User can not perform these functions using traditional physical cards. In the present invention, VCMA and virtual card services are managed by a central card management system (CCMS). CCMS also provides virtual card operation services to vendors, so that vendors can issue virtual cards, provide card services, and administer card services. Moreover, CCMS serves as a broker between a user and a vendor. Credential and private information, such as address, phone, age, password, pin and payment account number, are stored in CCMS, not with the vendor. When a transaction is performed, the credential information never goes through a vendor's equipment. Therefore, the system provides better security and privacy.

International Classification:

G06F 9/28
G06F 9/50
G06F 9/48

Abstract:

A device may receive information identifying a set of tasks to be executed by a microservices application that includes a plurality of microservices. The device may determine an execution time of the set of tasks based on a set of parameters and a model. The set of parameters may include a first parameter that identifies a first number of instances of a first microservice of the plurality of microservices, and a second parameter that identifies a second number of instances of a second microservice of the plurality of microservices. The device may compare the execution time and a threshold. The threshold may be associated with a service level agreement. The device may selectively adjust the first number of instances or the second number of instances based on comparing the execution time and the threshold.

H04L 29/08

Abstract:

A system for configuring a data center includes a fabric management server coupled to a management switch. A provisional Software Defined Networking (SDN) controller executing on the fabric management server can discover physical servers coupled to the management switch, receive network interface configuration information from the physical servers, and use the discovered network interface configuration information to determine a configuration for switches and servers coupled to an IP fabric. The configuration can be migrated to a full functionality SDN controller.

Abstract:

Techniques are disclosed for providing a Software Defined Networking (SDN) controller with real-time or near-real time visibility of the operation of data center fabrics to determine whether the DCI was properly configured. For example, an SDN controller receives high-level configuration data that describes a desired state of a network managed by the SDN controller at a high level of abstraction. The SDN controller applies a transformation function to the high-level configuration data to generate a low-level configuration data for network devices configured to implement the desired state of the network. SDN controller configures the SDN controller as a peer to the network devices to obtain one or more routes exchanged between the network devices. The SDN controller sends the low-level configuration data to the network devices to cause the network devices to implement the desired state of the network.

Abstract:

A virtual port group abstraction can facilitate automated configuration of devices in a data center. For example, a data center administrator can define a virtual port group to include a set of logical and physical interfaces for devices allocated to a particular department or other group within a company. An administrator for the department can then utilize a user interface to perform actions with respect to the virtual port group. The actions can include configuration actions, modeling actions and/or deployment actions. An action received by a network management controller such as a Software-Defined Networking (SDN) controller can be converted into the appropriate actions for the relevant logical and physical interfaces that are configured to be part of the virtual port group.
