Representational state transfer (REST) based geo-aware content transfer includes a REST server configured for receiving an application programming interface (API) request from a client device. The REST server obtains a upload universal resource locator (URL) targeting a caching server that is geographically closest to the client device, constructs an upload link containing the upload URL and a completion callback, and sends the upload link to the client device. The client device uses the upload URL to upload content to the caching server. The caching server interprets the completion callback to obtain a completion URL and, upon completion of content uploading, makes a REST API call using the completion URL. Responsive to the REST API call, the REST server executes an inbound operation to complete the uploading to a content management system and returns the content URL to the caching server which sends the content URL to the client device.

A method for a first set of processors and a second set of processors comprises, the first set of processors processing a set of queries, as a result of a change in utilization of the first set of processors, processing the set of queries using the second set of processors. The change in processors is independent of a change in storage resources, the storage resources shared by the first set of processors and the second set of processors.

This disclosure relates to the 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate after the 4th generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The method for operating the core network in a wireless communication system according to this disclosure comprises the processes of determining the content to store in the terminal based on the location information of the terminal, transmitting the content transmission command to the base station so as to transmit the content to the terminal in response to the determination, checking whether the terminal has entered the overload cell, and forming a D2D communication link between the terminal and another adjacent terminal when it is identified that the terminal has entered the overload cell.

The disclosure relates to non-blocking messaging in an electronic trading venue (ETV) in which a matching engine sends groups of price-compatible contra-orders to a credit engine. Doing so may improve the ETV's efficacy and performance by eliminating the need for multiple roundtrips of messages in the case of a failed credit check, and/or by allowing the ETV to more faithfully implement its matching rules. Upon sending an order to the credit engine the matching engine marks it as ‘uncertain’ to indicate that additional requests received on it (e.g., cancels) must also be forwarded to the credit engine. When all pending requests on an order have been acknowledged by the credit engine the matching engine unmarks it as such. In addition to credit checking the credit engine may also perform computations related to advanced order types (e.g., icebergs) indicating the output of such in its acknowledgements to the matching engine.

An approach for staged data backup is provided. The approach comprises downloading data to be backed up, by one or more processors, from at least one of cloud computing servers in a plurality of stages into a local cache, wherein each of the plurality of stages corresponds to a time point when a corresponding downloading operation starts, and a time point corresponding to the last stage of the plurality of stages is the time point when a request to back up the data is received. The approach comprises merging, by one or more processors, downloaded data corresponding to each of the plurality of stages into up-to-date data. The approach further comprises saving, by one or more processors, the merged up-to-date data corresponding to the last stage as a backup dataset.

A method for providing media content within a media distribution network. The method comprises transforming source media content into an interim format, thereby providing transformed content. Furthermore, the method comprises storing the transformed content on at least one core storage unit. In addition, the method comprises receiving a request for the source media content from a client. The method further comprises encoding the transformed content or intermediate coded content derived therefrom into encoded content suitable for transmission over a core network and/or an edge network, as well as sending the encoded content via the core network and/or the edge network to the client.
