Provided is an information processing apparatus having a control unit configured to execute instruction proxy processing in a case where an instruction from a user specifies another information processing apparatus as an instruction target.

An automotive gateway includes one or more interfaces and one or more processors. The one or more interfaces are configured to communicate with electronic subsystems of a vehicle. The one or more processors and configured to host one or more guest applications, to associate both (i) the hosted guest applications and (ii) a first subset of the electronic subsystems of the vehicle with a non-secured domain, to associate a second subset of the electronic subsystems of the vehicle with a secured domain, and to control communication traffic between the secured domain and the non-secured domain of the vehicle in accordance with a security policy.

A sub-system and method for a media processing system including a first entity and a second entity is provided. The method includes receiving, by the first entity of the media processing system from the second entity of the media processing system, a request, including a parameter having a value, to perform an action with the first entity by using the value of the parameter; and transmitting, by the first entity of the media processing system to the second entity, an acknowledgement that indicates whether the value of the parameter is accepted by the first entity to perform the action.

Embodiments of this application disclose methods, systems, and devices for electronic note identifier allocation and electronic note generation. In one aspect, an electronic note identifier allocation method is performed by a processing node of a distributed computer system. The processing node receives an electronic note identifier application request initiated by a service node. The processing node generates an electronic note identifier set in response to the electronic note identifier application request. The processing node also synchronizes the electronic note identifier in the electronic note identifier set. After the synchronizing, the processing node further the electronic note identifier in the electronic note identifier set to the service node.

Methods and systems may be associated with an Open Service Broker (“OSB”) Application Programming Interface (“API”) computing environment. A persistent finite state machine may be associated with an OSB API service broker, and a database may store a current state of the service broker. A computer processor of a state machine executor may retrieve the current state of the service broker from the database, and (based on the current state) use the persistent finite state machine to coordinate a distributed transaction workflow for the service broker, the distributed transaction workflow including asynchronous instance OSB API lifecycle operations that span multiple entities. The state machine may then update the database with state outputs for the service broker.

Systems and methods to manage and regulate the requests of multiple proxy clients are disclosed. In one aspect, the system and methods disclosed herein aids in configuring proxy server(s) with a rate-limit functionality. Configuration of the rate-limit functionality may be realized by, but not limited to, installing configuration file(s) and/or software application(s) on the proxy server(s). The configuration provides information about the list of restricted and unrestricted domains and their respective request limit specification in a given time frame. Therefore, each time before a proxy server forwards the clients' requests to a target domain, the proxy server checks and ensures that the request count to the particular target domain is well within the limit specified in the request limit specification. Thus, the embodiments described herein aid in preventing the IP addresses of proxy service providers from being blocked or denied from the target websites.

A data push method is provided. The data push method include publishing data by at least one of a plurality of data publishing terminals; communicating an intelligent gateway with the plurality of data publishing terminals to monitor data publishing status of the plurality of data publishing terminals; communicating the intelligent gateway with a cloud-based data distribution broker configured to implement a publish-and-subscribe protocol via internet to transmit published data to the cloud-based data distribution broker via the publish-and-subscribe protocol; and performing a controllable operation by one or more of a plurality of device terminals based on the data transmitted to the one or more of a plurality of device terminals. The intelligent gateway is configured to transmit the data published by the plurality of data publishing terminals to a message proxy server via the publish-and-subscribe protocol. A mobile terminal is configured to publish the data in real time.

Secure access to a corporate application with translation between an internal address and an external address. In some embodiments, a method may include receiving, at a secure access cloud point of delivery (PoD), from a client application on a client device, a request to access a corporate web application that is deployed in a corporate datacenter. The method may also include forwarding, from the secure access cloud PoD, to a connector that is also deployed in the corporate datacenter, the request to access the corporate web application. The method may further include brokering, by the connector and the secure access cloud PoD, authentication of a user, authorization of access by the user, and a secure communication session between the client application and the corporate web application by translating between an internal address of the corporate web application and an external address of the corporate web application.
