Techniques are provided for a coordinated microservice system including a coordinator and multiple services, which interact with each other. Each of the services can have multiple execution instances, which run independently of each other. In operation, the current status of each instance is evaluated against one or more rules to determine whether the current status changes the topography of the services and updating the topography based on the changes. An execution plan is created for executing a command based on one or more predefined rules and the updated topography, where the execution plan includes one or more steps for executing the command on each instance of the service. The execution plan is executed on each instance of the service in accordance with the one or more predefined rules.

Apparatuses, systems, methods, and computer program products are presented for aggregation platform permissions. A hardware computing device is configured to aggregate a user's data from a first plurality of third-party service providers over a data network for the user to access through a second plurality of third-party service providers, the hardware computing device comprising a trusted intermediary between the first plurality of third-party service providers and the second plurality of third-party service providers. A permissions module is configured to monitor which of a second plurality of third-party service providers have access to which portions of data from which of a first plurality of third-party service providers. A graphical user interface is configured to display one or more user interface elements allowing a user to grant and/or revoke access to portions of data from a first plurality of third-party service providers individually to a second plurality of third-party service providers.

An application gateway including application service programming positioned at a user premises can provide voice controlled and managed services to a user and one or more endpoint devices associated with the application gateway. The application gateway can be controlled remotely by the application service provider through a service management center and configured to execute an application service provided from the application service provider. The application gateway can execute the application service at the user premises upon voice command by a user and independent of application services executing on the application service provider's network. An application service logic manager can communicate with an application service enforcement manager to verify that the request conforms with the policy and usage rules associated with the application service in order to authorize execution of the application service on the application gateway, either directly or through endpoint devices.

A computer system receives a data stream with a plurality of packets. In response to receiving the data stream with the plurality of packets, the computer system distributes individual packets of the plurality of packets to the inputs of each of a plurality of processing nodes. Each respective processing node has a local queue storing a respective number of packets to be processed by the respective processing node. Distributing a respective packet of the plurality of packets to the inputs of each of the plurality of processing nodes includes delaying sending the respective packet to each of the plurality of processing nodes by a delay time that is a non-linear function of an average number of packets in the local queues of the respective processing nodes.

Systems and methods are disclosed for providing non-intrusive advertising content to users. The method includes receiving user input reflecting user content preferences for receiving desired content related to specific topics in lieu of standard advertising slots while watching playable media content via a set-top box. The method may further include receiving a request for playable media content and then retrieving desired content based on user content preferences. Thereafter, the method may include choosing non-intrusive advertising content and generating datagrams that include the desired content and the non-intrusive advertising content. The datagrams may be concatenated with the playable media content to generate displayable content. The display content may then be provided for displaying.
