In one embodiment, a system for managing communication connections in a virtualization environment includes a plurality of host machines implementing a virtualization environment, wherein each of the host machines includes a hypervisor, at least one user virtual machine (user VM), and a distributed file server that includes file server virtual machines (FSVMs) and associated local storage devices. Each FSVM and associated local storage device are local to a corresponding one of the host machines, and the FSVMs conduct I/O transactions with their associated local storage devices based on I/O requests received from the user VMs. Each of the user VMs on each host machine sends each of its respective I/O requests to an FSVM that is selected by one or more of the FSVMs for each I/O request based on a lookup table that maps a storage item referenced by the I/O request to the selected one of the FSVMs.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a mobile assistant device that obtains information regarding device locations of a plurality of devices; the mobile assistant device is enabled to move among at least a portion of the device locations. The mobile assistant device detects an indication of a need for maintenance, repair, and/or user attention, relating to a target device. The mobile assistant device moves to a location of the target device; obtains device information regarding a condition of the target device; and reports the device information to equipment of the user and/or a controller of the mobile assistant device. The mobile assistant device engages with the user and/or equipment of the user to provide instructions to the equipment of the user for resolving an issue relating to the target device, and can physically engage with the target device to resolve the issue. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Disclosed are systems, methods, and computer-readable media for assuring tenant forwarding in a network environment. Network assurance can be determined in layer 1, layer 2 and layer 3 of the networked environment including, internal-internal (e.g., inter-fabric) forwarding and internal-external (e.g., outside the fabric) forwarding in the networked environment. The network assurance can be performed using logical configurations, software configurations and/or hardware configurations.

The present disclosure describes systems and methods for detecting malware. More particularly, the system includes a monitoring device that monitors side-channel activity of a target device. The monitoring device that can work in conjunction with (or independently of) a cloud-based security analytics engine to perform anomaly detection and classification on the side-channel activity. For example, the monitoring device can calculate a first set of features that are then transmitted to the security analytics engine for anomaly detection and classification.

In one example, a catalog service may use a peer-to-peer network to distribute a data content item across multiple associated user devices. The catalog service may maintain a device group list describing a device group and a content catalog for the device group listing a data content set stored in the device group. The catalog service may identify a content change to the data content set listed in the content catalog at a seed device of the device group. The catalog service may send an update alert to a leeching device of the device group of the content change to trigger the leeching device to receive the content change over a peer-to-peer network between the seed device and the leaching device.

Systems and apparatus for sensing and video capture include at least one camera with an optical sensor that captures video image data of a first sampling rate. An auxiliary sensor captures auxiliary data at a second sample rate. A processor is communicatively connected to the optical sensor and auxiliary sensor. The processor transmits video image data captured at the first sample rate auxiliary sensor data captured at the second sampling rate across a data connection to a centralized computer that receives the video image data and the auxiliary sensor data and operate to present the video image data and the auxiliary sensor data on a graphical display.

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for determining a to-be-uploaded NSD, so as to resolve a technical problem of a relatively low network service generation efficiency. In embodiments of the present invention, multiple NSDs are pre-stored, and when an NSD needs to be uploaded, it is only required to select an appropriate NSD from the stored NSDs for uploading; and when there is a service requirement, an NSD does not need to be generated before being uploaded. Therefore, a time required for uploading an NSD is reduced, and network service generation efficiency is improved.

A gunshot detection system includes gunshot sensor units with microphones for detecting gunshots and capturing audio data depicting the detected gunshots and other ambient sounds, an environmental board with various environmental sensors for generating environmental data indicating environmental conditions. The audio data, environmental data, and position information can be stored locally on local nonvolatile storage of the gunshot sensor unit for later retrieval by law enforcement entities. In one embodiment, the gunshot sensor units include a wired and/or wireless data transfer interface for transferring the audio data, environmental data and/or position information to handheld units of law enforcement entities. The gunshot sensor unit can also stream live captured audio data for live monitoring by a control panel, and might also include speakers for providing audio playback of audio data from the control panel.
