A system, a method, and a computer program product for scalable processes for write-order preserving data stream consumption. A data partition in a plurality of data partitions of data stream is selected based on a request received from a client processing node. The plurality of data partitions are distributed among a plurality of broker nodes in a distributed messaging system. A broker node in the plurality of broker nodes hosting the selected data partition is identified. The identified broker node provides the selected data partition to the client processing node for performing at least one function.

Locally providing cloud storage array services for a plurality of storage systems within a data center by: receiving a request for storage resources from an operating system level virtualization service; determining, among the plurality of storage systems; an implementation of the request from the operating system level virtualization service; and providing storage resources to the operating system level virtualization service in accordance with the implementation of the request from the operating system level virtualization service.

Systems and methods that allow secure application-driven arbitrary compute in storage devices in a cloud-based computing system are provided. A computing system including a compute controller configured to: (1) provide access to host compute resources, and (2) operate in at least one of a first mode or a second mode is provided. The computing system may further include a storage controller configured to provide access to storage systems including storage components, at least one compute component, and at least one cryptographic component. In the first mode, the host compute resources may be configured to execute at least a first operation on at least a first set of data stored in at least one of the storage components. In the second mode, the at least one compute component may be configured to execute at least a second operation on at least a second set of data.

A provider network hosting multiple network-based services that implement different resources for a client may provide automated management of resource attributes across the multiple network-based services. A client may send a request to a resource attribute service implemented at the provider network to add a resource attribute to different resources implemented among different network-based services that satisfy resource metadata selection criteria. In response to receiving the request, resource metadata maintained for the different resources implemented among the different network-based resources, which may include one or more previously applied resource attributes, may be evaluated to identify those resources that satisfy the resource metadata selection criteria. For those resources that satisfy the resource metadata selection criteria, the resource attribute may be added to the resource metadata maintained for the different resources.

An apparatus, system and method surrounding the sensing, recording and communicating information pertaining to users providing a portable identification and diagnostic reporting system configured with data storage, sensors, processing, and transmission means to notify intended recipients of identification, sensed, collected and prewritten user data. Communication of such data, stored on local devices and/or cloud based storage, and executed through means such as UHF, nearfield and other wireless communication protocols. The apparatus, system and method are intended for use in scenarios including but not limited to social, medical and emergency applications.

A digital asset is represented and verified as a set of related digital asset or other content objects. Related metadata is stored on an immutable distributed ledger separately from the content objects themselves. For example, a transaction object includes metadata such as identifiers for two or more content objects, fingerprints for the content objects. The content objects may be stored in a local or cloud object repository. Validation of a later identified content object may include determining a fingerprint for the later identified content object, mapping that fingerprint to an address within the immutable distributed ledger to retrieve metadata previously mapped, and comparing the two fingerprints. Visual validation may be provided when the first and second fingerprints match, such as by displaying a positive icon adjacent the later identified object.

Computer systems and methods for replicating a portion of a data set to a local repository associated with a subnetwork are disclosed. In one implementation, a method for a device associated with a subnetwork may include obtaining a portion of a data set from a central repository. The data set may be associated with one or more subnetworks, and the portion of the data set may be associated with the subnetwork. The method may further include obtaining a request for data originating from a node in the subnetwork. The requested data may include at least one of (i) the portion of the data set, and (ii) data generated based on the portion of the data set, and the request may be destined for the central repository. In addition, the method may include determining whether the central repository is unavailable to provide the requested data, and providing the requested data to the node after the central repository is determined as being unavailable.

A method and a system are disclosed including a mobile computing device, having a photo history app to obtain various information about a photo to be taken including geolocation data, geographic direction of the photo with respect to its subject, date, time, photographer's information, city name, angle of the picture or video, scene identifier such as a name or other designation of a subject building, park, street, library, courthouse, theater and the like. Taking a picture from an event or a famous person may cause an identification or other relevant information about the event or person to be recorded with the picture. The obtained data may be transmitted to a remote picture processing server with a database for processing to further obtain, from other sources, various statistics about the received picture. The server may return some of the relevant information to the app.
