A network device obtains, from a transaction queue, a plurality of transactions that do not conflict with each other, and performs reverse shallow copying in parallel for the transactions that do not conflict, to generate a plurality of temporary trees corresponding to the plurality of transactions. Because the plurality of transactions does not conflict with each other, processing the transactions in parallel can ensure accurate and proper transaction processing. In addition, generating the temporary trees in a reverse shallow copying manner can effectively reduce consumption of time and memory. Further, processing of the plurality of transactions is implemented by merging the plurality of temporary trees.

The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods related to microcode instructions indicating instruction types. One example apparatus comprises a memory storing a set of microcode instructions. Each microcode instruction of the set can comprise a first field comprising a number of control data units, and a second field comprising a number of type select data units. Each microcode instruction of the set can have a particular instruction type defined by a value of the number of type select data units, and particular functions corresponding to the number of control data units are variable based on the particular instruction type.

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.

Apparatus, systems, and methods for analyzing data are described. The data can be analyzed using a hierarchical structure. One such hierarchical structure can comprise a plurality of layers, where each layer performs an analysis on input data and provides an output based on the analysis. The output from lower layers in the hierarchical structure can be provided as inputs to higher layers. In this manner, lower layers can perform a lower level of analysis (e.g., more basic/fundamental analysis), while a higher layer can perform a higher level of analysis (e.g., more complex analysis) using the outputs from one or more lower layers. In an example, the hierarchical structure performs pattern recognition.
