A processor may analyze one or more microservice chains based on one or more user profiles. The processor may generate, based on the analyzing, a health status associated with the one or more microservice chains. The processor may determine, based on the health status, whether a microservice in the one or more microservice chains is unhealthy. The processor may implement, automatically, a select microservice chain.

A method and a first node for managing transmission of at least one probe message for detection of failure of a second node are disclosed. A network comprises the first and second nodes. The first node receives a message about an event related to the second node. The message comprises an identifier of the second node and an event type of the event. The first node retrieves at least one policy for failure detection based on the event type. The first node modifies a probe list based on said at least one policy with respect to the second node. The probe list indicates an order in which nodes, neighbouring to the first node, are to be probed by transmission of the probe messages thereto. The second node is one of the nodes neighbouring to the first node. The first node transmits the probe messages according to the probe list.

Examples herein describe techniques for communicating between data processing engines in an array of data processing engines. In one embodiment, the array is a 2D array where each of the DPEs includes one or more cores. In addition to the cores, the data processing engines can include streaming interconnects which transmit streaming data using two different modes: circuit switching and packet switching. Circuit switching establishes reserved point-to-point communication paths between endpoints in the interconnect which routes data in a deterministic manner. Packet switching, in contrast, transmits streaming data that includes headers for routing data within the interconnect in a non-deterministic manner. In one embodiment, the streaming interconnects can have one or more ports configured to perform circuit switching and one or more ports configured to perform packet switching.

An aspect of the present disclosure facilitates consumption of data services provisioned in cloud infrastructures. In one embodiment, a name server maintains a node-map data reflecting the corresponding set of nodes (in cloud infrastructures) currently hosting each of multiple data services. A consumer system (e.g. an end user system or another node in the cloud infrastructure) seeking to access a desired data service, sends to the name server a resolution request containing an identifier of the desired data service. The consumer system receives from the name server, identifiers of a set of nodes currently hosting the desired data service and then accesses the desired data service through at least one of the set of nodes.

A communication system for point to multipoint communications by grouping client devices based on associated modes is provided. In one example implementation, point to multipoint communication improvements are achieved by grouping a plurality of client devices by their optimal modes for communication. For example, the communication system can determine, based on channel quality indicators (CQIs) that two client devices of a plurality of client devices are associated with an optimal first mode of a modal antenna. The system can group the two client devices into a first group, the first group associated with communication using the first mode of the modal antenna. The modal antenna can communicate with the first group using the first mode of a modal antenna during a single frame of communication.

Node clustering configuration is disclosed herein. An example method includes determining nodes of a cluster, each of the nodes having a unique identifier and a cluster identifier for the cluster, determining a voting configuration for the cluster, the voting configuration defining a quorum of master-eligible nodes of the nodes, the voting configuration being adaptable so as to maintain an optimal level of fault tolerance for the cluster, adding and removing nodes that can change the voting configuration, configuring a cluster configuration through an API, and electing one of the master-eligible nodes as a master node.

Various systems and methods for implementing a software defined industrial system are described herein. For example, an orchestrated system of distributed nodes may run an application, including modules implemented on the distributed nodes. In response to a node failing, a module may be redeployed to a replacement node. In an example, self-descriptive control applications and software modules are provided in the context of orchestratable distributed systems. The self-descriptive control applications may be executed by an orchestrator or like control device and use a module manifest to generate a control system application. For example, an edge control node of the industrial system may include a system on a chip including a microcontroller (MCU) to convert IO data. The system on a chip includes a central processing unit (CPU) in an initial inactive state, which may be changed to an activated state in response an activation signal.

Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to monitor media are disclosed. An example system includes a second client device to transmit media to a first client device via a streaming monitor device, the streaming monitor device to operate as a Group Owner of a direct media network including the first and second client devices, identify media identification information and media device information, and transmit the media identification information and the media device information to the server, and the server to identify at least one of the first or second client devices based on the media device information, identify the media based on the media identification information, and generate a data association of the media and at least one of the first or second client devices, the data association based on a credit of the media as having been accessed by at least one of the first or second client devices.

Various systems and methods may be used to implement a software defined industrial system. For example, an orchestrated system of distributed nodes may run an application, including modules implemented on the distributed nodes. The orchestrated system may include an orchestration server, a first node executing a first module, and a second node executing a second module. In response to the second node failing, the second module may be redeployed to a replacement node (e.g., the first node or a different node). The replacement mode may be determined by the first node or another node, for example based on connections to or from the second node.

Methods and systems for managing distributed systems are disclosed. The distributed system may include any number of data processing systems that may contribute to the functionality of the distributed system. To contribute to the functionality of the distributed system, each of the data processing systems may need to be configured to facilitate cooperative operation. To manage configuration of data processing system, a control plane may be utilized. The control plane may utilize a consensus based process for managing leadership among members of the control plane.
