An apparatus and method for a power-efficient framework to maintain data synchronization of a mobile personal computer (MPC) are described. In one embodiment, the method includes the detection of a data synchronization wakeup event while the MPC is operating according to a sleep state. Subsequent to wakeup event, at least one system resource is disabled to provide a minimum number of system resources required to re-establish a network connection. In one embodiment, user data from a network server is synchronized on the MPC without user intervention; the mobile platform system resumes operation according to the sleep state. In one embodiment, a wakeup alarm is programmed according to a user history profile regarding received e-mails. In a further embodiment, data synchronizing involves disabling a display, and throttling the system processor to operate at a reduced frequency. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Some embodiments of the invention provide a method of facilitating routing through a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) defined for an entity. A first edge forwarding node located at a first multi-machine site of the entity, the first multi-machine site at a first physical location and including a first set of machines, serves as an edge forwarding node for the first set of machines by forwarding packets between the first set of machines and other machines associated with the entity via other forwarding nodes in the SD-WAN. The first edge forwarding node receives configuration data specifying for the first edge forwarding node to serve as a hub forwarding node for forwarding a set of packets from a second set of machines associated with the entity and operating at a second multi-machine site at a second physical location to a third set of machines associated with the entity and operating at a third multi-machine site at a third physical location. The first edge forwarding node serves as a hub forwarding node to forward the set of packets from the second set of machines to the third set of machines.

A system for monitoring a plurality of machines of a facility is disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of data network devices configured to communicate with one another via at least one network. The data network devices are configured to collect machine data from the plurality of machines and distribute the machine data via the at least one network. The system further comprises data display devices configured to provide a graphical user interface that enables a user to view and analyze the machine data that is collected and distributed by the data network devices.

Some embodiments provide a method for a module executing on a Kubernetes node in a cluster. The method retrieves data regarding ongoing connections processed by a forwarding element executing on the node. The method maps the retrieved data to Kubernetes concepts implemented in the cluster. The method exports the retrieved data along with the Kubernetes concepts to an aggregator that receives data regarding ongoing connections from a plurality of nodes in the cluster.
