    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for binding the configuration state of client devices to the blockchain and utilizing the binding for managing cryptographic compliance. A management agent can send a request to a smart contract hosted by a blockchain network for a zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) of a configuration state for a computing device, the state including cryptographic policies. Cryptographic operations performed by the client device can be performed by complying with the policies stored on the blockchain network.

    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods, media, and systems for remediation of containerized workloads based on context breach at edge devices are disclosed. One example computer-implemented method includes monitoring telemetry data from a first software defined wide area network (SD-WAN) edge device, where the telemetry data includes multiple context elements at the first SD-WAN edge device. It is determined that a context change occurs for at least one of the context elements at the first SD-WAN edge device. It is determined that due to the context change, the first SD-WAN edge device does not satisfy one or more requirements for running one or more workloads scheduled to run. In response to the determination that the first SD-WAN edge device does not satisfy the one or more requirements, the at least one of the one or more workloads is offloaded from the first SD-WAN edge device to a second SD-WAN edge device.

    Abstract: The current document is directed a resource-exchange system that facilitates resource exchange and sharing among computing facilities. The currently disclosed methods and systems employ efficient, distributed-search methods and subsystems within distributed computer systems that include large numbers of geographically distributed data centers to locate resource-provider computing facilities that match the resource needs of resource-consumer computing-facilities based on attribute values associated with the needed resources, the resource providers, and the resource consumers. The resource-exchange system monitors and controls resource exchanges on behalf of participants in the resource-exchange system in order to optimize resource usage within participant data centers and computing facilities. The resource-exchange system automatically determines resource pricing on behalf of participant resource-provider computing facilities and subsequently recalibrates resource pricing on behalf of participant resource-provider computing facilities to steer hosting requests towards proportionate consumption of resources allocated by the resource-provider computing facilities to the resource-exchange system.

    Abstract: The current document is directed to a resource-exchange system that facilitates resource exchange and sharing among computing facilities. The currently disclosed methods and systems employ efficient, distributed-search methods and subsystems within distributed computer systems that include large numbers of geographically distributed data centers to locate resource-provider computing facilities that match the resource needs of resource-consumer computing-facilities based on attribute values associated with the needed resources, the resource providers, and the resource consumers. The resource-exchange system organizes and tracks operations related to a resource exchange using a resource-exchange context. In one implementation, each resource-exchange context represents the stages of, and information related to, placement of one or more computational-resources-consuming entities on behalf of a resource consumer within a resource-provider computing facility and execution of the one or more computational-resources-consuming entities within the resource-provider computing facility.
