Preferential loading in data centers
A method comprises receiving, at a system from an application server, a request for a service, the system comprising two or more global session databases, and the request associated with a session; identifying among the two or more global session databases, a first global session database to fulfill the request based on a criteria; storing, by the application server, the session at the first global session database; and transmitting, by the session, data associated with the request for the service in accordance with a configuration table. Additional methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media or computer program products provide similar or alternative functionality.
AUTONOMOUS DISTRIBUTED WORKLOAD AND INFRASTRUCTURE SCHEDULING
Provided is a process of autonomous distributed workload and infrastructure scheduling based on physical telemetry data of a plurality of different data centers executing a plurality of different workload distributed applications on behalf of a plurality of different tenants.

AUTOMATED MULTI-NETWORK FAILOVER FOR DATA CENTERS
A device may monitor a status of a first data center of a group of data centers. The device may determine, based on the status of the first data center, to cause a failover from the first data center to a second data center. The device may cause a domain name server (DNS) configuration, associated with an external DNS, to be and a set of DNS entries, associated with an internal DNS, to be altered to cause a portion of the network traffic, respectively associated with a first network and a second network of the plurality of networks, to be routed the second data center. The device may cause a load balancer configuration to be altered to cause a portion of the network traffic associated with a third network of the plurality of networks to be redirected from the first data center to the second data center.
TECHNIQUES FOR WARMING UP A NODE IN A DISTRIBUTED DATA STORE
In various embodiments, a node manager configures a “new” node as a replacement for an “unavailable” node that was previously included in a distributed data store. First, the node manager identifies a source node that stores client data that was also stored in the unavailable node. Subsequently, the node manager configures the new node to operate as a slave of the source node and streams the client data from the source node to the new node. Finally, the node manager configures the new node to operate as one of multiple masters nodes in the distributed data store. Advantageously, by configuring the node to implement a hybrid of a master-slave replication scheme and a master-master replication scheme, the node manager enables the distributed data store to process client requests without interruption while automatically restoring the previous level of redundancy provided by the distributed data store.
Systems and methods for improved fault tolerance in solicited information handling systems
An information handling system is provided that uses an overlay network controller to improve fault tolerance and minimize downtime in a solicited system. The network controller may determine standby paths for the solicited communications path and reroute communications to one of the standby paths when a fault is detected in the communications path.
Content delivery network architecture with edge proxy
Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems, methods, computer program products, and the like, for a content delivery network (CDN) architecture utilizing one or more proxy cache devices between a requesting device and an edge cluster of the CDN. The proxy cache device is a relatively high speed device compared to various possible devices making up one or more edge clusters. Thus, if the proxy has cached the requested content, it is capable of directly servicing the client content request at a faster rate than providing the content from the edge cluster. Otherwise, the proxy cache may request the content from an edge cluster and store the content for quick retrieval in response to additional requests for the content. In one embodiment, the proxy cache may perform an analysis of the request or a series of requests to determine if the content is cached at the proxy cache device.
Connectivity analysis and a mass storage system capable of connectivity analysis
A mass storage system obtains an hierarchical cluster mapping information; Host port state information, which is indicative of a state of at least one host port, is received from an intermediate device of a network that couples hosts to the mass storage system; The mass storage system estimates a state of an entity, which may be one or more host computers or a cluster of host computers. The estimating is based on the hierarchical cluster mapping information and the host port state information. The mass storage system determines whether to generate an alert, in response to the estimated state of the at least one entity. If it is determined to generate an alert then an alert is generated.
Semi-automatic failover
Semi-automatic failover includes automatic failover by a service provider as well as self-serviced failover by a service consumer. A signal can be afforded by a service provider based on analysis of an incident that affects the service provider. Initiation of self-serviced failover by a service consumer can be predicated on the signal. In one instance, the signal provides information that aids a decision of whether or not to failover. In another instance, the signal can grant or deny permission to perform a self-serviced failover.
Fallback service through a cloud exchange for network service provider connections
An example method includes receiving, from a customer system by a cloud exchange comprising processing circuitry, a request to communicatively couple a virtual gateway on network infrastructure of the cloud exchange to a network gateway communicatively coupled to a public network, the request including data indicating a public Internet Protocol (IP) address of the customer system, wherein the customer system is configured with a first connection communicatively coupling the customer system and the public network via a network service provider (NSP) that is separate from the cloud exchange; configuring, by the cloud exchange, a network route for a network gateway to the virtual gateway, the network gateway communicatively coupled to the public network; and providing, by the cloud exchange to the network gateway, routing information including the public IP address of the customer system to create a second connection communicatively coupling the customer system and the public network.
