摘要:
Techniques for automated and controlled cloud migration or bursting are provided. A schema for a first cloud in a first cloud processing environment is used to evaluate metrics against thresholds defined in the schema. When a threshold is reached other metrics for other clouds in second cloud processing environments are evaluated and a second cloud processing environment is selected. Next, a second cloud is cloned in the selected second cloud processing environment for the first cloud and traffic associated with the first cloud is automatically migrated to the cloned second cloud.

Techniques for intelligent service deployment are provided. Cloud and service data are evaluated to develop a service deployment plan for deploying a service to a target cloud processing environment. When dictated by the plan or by events that trigger deployment, the service is deployed to the target cloud processing environment in accordance with the service deployment plan.

Techniques for validating services for deployment in an intelligent workload management system are provided. A service is created with workloads and software products. Test modules are integrated into the service to test each of the products. The service with the test modules is executed and test results are produced. The test results are compared against known results and a decision is made to deploy the service to a cloud processing environment or to require the service to be retested.
摘要:
Techniques for managing service definitions in an intelligent workload management system are provided. Workloads and software products are assembled as a single unit with custom configuration settings. The single unit represents a recallable and reusable service definition for a service that can be custom deployed within designated cloud processing environments.
摘要:
The system and method for controlling cloud and virtualized data centers described herein may include a computing environment having a model-driven, service-oriented architecture for creating collaborative threads to manage workloads, and further to creating cloud images having embedded management agents and identity services for validating the cloud images prior to deployment into the cloud and virtualized data centers and controlling, monitoring, and auditing activity associated with the cloud images following deployment into the cloud and virtualized data centers.
摘要:
Techniques for secure channel messaging are provided. Resources communicate with one another over temporary and secure communication channels. The channels come in and out of existence or switch between different channels using a variety of information and based on dynamic policy evaluation. In some situations, the channels are randomly generated using a variety of the information. Authorized resources are informed of the channels to use and when to use them for purposes of delivering and receiving messages to communicate.

In various embodiments, techniques for identity-based address normalization are provided. A principal attempts to access a resource via a principal-supplied address. A principal identity for the principal is used to acquire one or more address patterns. The principal-supplied address is compared against the one or more address patterns and when a match is detected, the principal-supplied address is normalized according to policy associated with the matched pattern. Additional access limitations and security restrictions are then enforced in response to the normalized address.

Techniques for evaluating patent impacts are provided. A claim of a patent is normalized and an abstract of the claim is generated. The abstract is used to search a repository of target sources and their corresponding abstracts. Related abstracts found during the search are returned for purposes of evaluating the claim in view of data sources associated with the related abstracts.
