Systems and methods for allocating resources are disclosed. Resources as processing time, writes or reads are allocated. Credits are issued to the clients in a manner that ensure the system is operating in a safe allocation state. The credits can be used not only to allocate resources but also to throttle clients where necessary. Credits can be granted fully, partially, and in a number greater than requested. Zero or negative credits can also be issued to throttle clients. Segment credits are associated with identifying unique fingerprints or segments and may be allocated by determining how many credits a CPU/cores can support. This maximum number may be divided amongst clients connected with the server.

In one aspect, a system for managing data processes in a network of computing resources is configured to: receive, from an instructor device, a parent request for execution of at least one parent data process executable by a plurality of computing resources at least one computing resource; generate at least one child request for execution of at least one corresponding child data process for routing to at least one corresponding destination device, each of the at least one child data process for executing at least a portion of the at least one parent data process, and each of the at least one child request including a respective destination key derived from at least one instructor key; and route each of the at least one child request to the at least one corresponding destination device. The at least one child request can be obtained by a supervisor server via the routing.

Systems and methods are provided for fail-safe loading of information on a user interface, comprising receiving, via a modular platform, requests for access to a mobile application platform from a plurality of mobile devices, opening and directing the requests for access to the mobile application platform to a sequential processor of an application programming interface (API) gateway when a parallel processor of the API gateway is unresponsive to requests for access to the mobile application platform for a predetermined period of time, periodically checking a status of the parallel processor, and redirecting the requests for access to the mobile application platform to the parallel processor when the parallel processor is capable of processing requests for access to the mobile application platform.

Systems and methods are provided for managing dynamic controls over access to computer resources and, even more particularly, for evaluating and re-evaluating dynamic conditions and changes associated with user sessions. The systems and methods are configured to automatically make a determination as to whether new or additional authentication credentials are required for a user that is already authorized for accessing resources in a user session, in response to triggering events such as the identification of a new or changed condition associated with the user session.

A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes receiving a plurality of backup requests at a data storage system having a data storage library. At least some of the backup requests have unique service-metadata associated therewith. Each backup request is placed in a backup queue, where an ordering of the backup requests within the backup queue is based at least in part on the service-metadata. Backup operations are performed on the data storage system in accordance with the ordering of the backup requests within the backup queue. A computer program product for determining resource allocation in a backup environment according to another embodiment includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The program instructions are readable and/or executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform the foregoing method.

A node management protocol is disclosed herein. The protocol can be used for task distribution in multi-node systems. The node management protocol can implement a cooperation-based task distribution algorithm that does not rely on consensus. When a task is ingested into a cluster of nodes, the nodes can compete to handle the task. A transport layer helps coordinate among nodes and facilitates the handling of work. A session expiry protocol handles node failures with the remaining nodes reassigning work.

Computing systems, for example, multi-tenant systems deploy software artifacts in data centers created in a cloud platform using a cloud platform infrastructure language that is cloud platform independent. The system allows users to specify a system configuration freeze for a time interval for services running in a datacenter configured on a cloud platform. During the system freeze, changes to the system are prohibited or put on hold. The system generates pipelines for modifying system configuration of services. A pipeline includes a change stage for making a change associated with a service and a pre-change stage for acquiring a lock. If the system receives a request for performing system freeze of a datacenter entity, the system acquires locks on services of the datacenter entity. As a result, execution of pipelines configured to change the system configuration of the services is put on hold.

In an approach to storage level load balancing, the load level of a storage system is monitored, where the load level is a utilization percentage of a plurality of CPU cores in the storage system. An overload condition is detected based on the utilization percentage of one or more CPU cores exceeding a threshold, where the overload condition is caused by an overlap of one or more I/O queues from multiple host computers accessing a single CPU core. Responsive to detecting the overload condition, a new I/O queue is selected on a second CPU core, where the second CPU core has a utilization percentage less than a second threshold. A recommendation is sent to a host computer, where the recommendation is to move I/O traffic from the first CPU core to the new I/O queue on the second CPU core to rebalance the load level of the storage system.
