In one embodiment, a system for managing a virtualization environment includes a set of host machines, each of which includes a hypervisor, virtual machines, and a virtual machine controller, and a data migration system configured to identify one or more existing storage items stored at one or more existing File Server Virtual Machines (FSVMs) of an existing virtualized file server (VFS). For each of the existing storage items, the data migration system is configured to identify a new FSVMs of a new VFS based on the existing FSVM, send a representation of the storage item from the existing FSVM to the new FSVM, such that representations of storage items are sent between different pairs of FSVMs in parallel, and store a new storage item at the new FSVM, such that the new storage item is based on the representation of the existing storage item received by the new FSVM.

In some embodiments, a method includes generating, based on distributed ledger data associated with a first distributed ledger-based network (DLN), distributed ledger data associated with a second DLN. The first DLN and the second DLN each is a fork and the distributed ledger data associated with the first DLN include account data associated with a set of accounts. The method includes generating a request to initiate a transaction between a first account and a second account. The method includes authenticating the transaction based on a protocol associated with the second DLN and without using a private cryptographic key of the first account. The method includes sending a signal indicating the transaction was authenticated and storing information associated with the transaction in the distributed ledger data associated with the second DLN.

A method for automatically detecting errors in at least one data entry in a database, the at least one data entry including an input string of characters that do not match at least one predefined string of characters. The method includes generating a first image map; generating at least one classification parameter by comparing the first image map to a second image map, the second image map based at least partially on the predefined string of characters; determining that the input string of characters correlates to the predefined string of characters; and modifying the at least one data entry to match the predefined string of characters in response to determining that the input string of characters correlates to the predefined string of characters. Various other methods and systems for automatically detecting errors in at least one data entry in a database are also disclosed.

This disclosure provides a data query method and apparatus. The method includes: dividing an object storage system into a plurality of storage spaces based on time slices, establishing a mapping relationship between the storage spaces, the time slices, and operation records, recording time slice information corresponding to a snapshot after generating the snapshot, and implementing services such as a read-only service, a snapshot rollback service, and an object change service based on the snapshot, so as to improve query performance without adding extra storage overheads.

Technologies are described for generating, acquiring, transferring, and manipulating sets of interaction representations, where an interaction representation represents user interaction with content on a computer device, typically using a software application. The set can be represented as an interaction representation. To facilitate set creation, including adding items to a set, a request can be sent to an application to provide an interaction representation, such as an interaction representation of a current state of user-content interaction associated with the software application. Sets can be associated with different types, where the set type can determine whether, and what types, of interaction representations can be added to a set. Sets can be associated with expiration events, where the interaction representation for the set, and in some cases the component interaction representations, can be deleted upon the occurrence of the expiration event. In some cases, a set can be designated not to expire.

A back-end application computer server may access a potential metadata entries data store containing a set of potential metadata entries, each entry including at least a data element name and a data element definition. A metadata collection system may be executed to automatically populate a metadata template based on the set of potential metadata entries. The system may update entries in the metadata template using a translation tool and validate the updated entries in the metadata template to ensure that required data elements are present. The system may also certify the validated entries load the set of certified metadata entries, including the certified data element names and certified data element definitions, into an enterprise metadata repository data store. Electronic messages may be exchanged to support at least one interactive user interface display associated with certification of the metadata template.

Secure management of keys and identities of an object manufactured by a manufacturer having a manufacturer key pair, and a client having a client key pair, the management being carried out using a decentralized blockchain database. The method includes generation of a manufacturing key pair; and publication and recording, in the blockchain, of the decentralized object identifier used to obtain the public key of the object. When a client purchases the object from the manufacturer, the method includes providing, by the object manufacturer, the object identifier, and the public manufacturing key to the client; and updating the blockchain. When the object is switched on for the first time, the object enrolls itself by generation of a utilization key pair; auto-enrollment using the manufacturing key pair; and replacement, in the blockchain, of the public manufacturing key associated with the object identifier with the public utilization key associated with the object identifier.

An audio stream is detected during a communication session with a user. Natural language processing on the audio stream is performed to update a set of attributes by supplementing the set of attributes based on attributes derived from the audio stream. A set of filter values is updated based on the updated set of attributes. The updated set of filter values is used to query a set of databases to obtain datasets. A probabilistic program is executed during the communication session by determining a set of probability parameters characterizing a probability of an anomaly occurring based on the datasets and the set of attributes. A determination is made if whether the probability satisfies a threshold. In response to a determination that the probability satisfies the threshold, a record is updated to identify the communication session to indicate that the threshold is satisfied.

Systems and methods for handling database transactions within a database session. A first client request to update a first data piece of a database session is received. A first response to the first client request indicates an update of the first data piece in accordance with the first request and publishes the update to enable further processing of the updated first data piece. An indication indicates that the updated first data piece is to be further updated and/or a second data piece of the database session is to be updated. A second client request is received to update a third data piece of the database session and a second response to the second client request indicates an update of the third data piece in accordance with the second request and an update of the updated first data piece in accordance with the indication.

A system and method for predictive pre-authorization of subsidiary accounts using passive biometrics which uses wireless mobile devices and biometric scanning to automatically predict pre-authorized transaction amounts for a plurality of subsidiary accounts in a secure manner without requiring the customer to handle his or her mobile device. The system and method uses a payment facilitation device at the business location which automatically detects and recognizes registered mobile devices, displays a photo of the customer to a business employee for identity confirmation, verifies the customer with a biometrics verification database, generates a pre-authorization amount with an authorization generator, and automatically deducts payments for purchases from a pre-authorized customer account. The system and method may further include capabilities for facilitating offline transactions using accounts enabled as offline accounts.
