A recommendation system can be configured to provide tailored software update relevance information for deployed software. The recommendation engine can obtain running state information for a current version of software running on a device, as well as build data for each of the current version of the software and a new version of the software. The recommendation engine can obtain software version difference information based on the build data and determine, based on at least the software version difference information and the running state information, a number of functions in the current version of software that are directly impacted by the new version. The recommendation engine can cause relevance information derived from this determination to be displayed on a computing device, and/or the recommendation engine can automatically cause an update to the new version of the software to be applied or rejected based on the determination.

Providing tailored software update relevance information for deployed software

Techniques for compiling source code include generating object code by processing source code corresponding to a portion of a software program. The source code includes an instruction, native to a program language, for a memory location access. Based at least in part on processing the source code, the compiler generates second object code that, when executed by one or more processors, configures the one or more processors to determine to implement the memory location access using first database access transaction operations or to implement the memory location access using second database access transaction operations. The compiler may generate third object code that configures the one or more processors to implement the memory location access using the first database access transaction operations or to implement the memory location access using the second database access transaction operations, based at least in part based on the determining.

Compiler-generated alternate memory-mapped data access operations

In one embodiment, a server generates expected levels of capability associated with possible combinations of settings for first and second adjustable parameters for an aspect of a software image feature. The server receives an indication of a desired level of capability for the aspect of the software image feature and, based on the indication, identifies a particular expected level of capability associated with a particular possible combination of the settings for the first and second adjustable parameters. The particular expected level of capability is closer to a desired level of capability for an aspect of a software image feature than the other expected levels of capability associated with the possible combinations of the settings for the first and second adjustable parameters. The server produces a software image that includes the particular possible combination of the settings for the first and second adjustable parameters.

Automatically producing software images

In one embodiment, a device in a network maintains a plurality of applications executed by the device. The device associates the plurality of applications with a node in the network. The device schedules a time period during which a particular one of the applications is authorized to access the node associated with the applications. The device relays data packets between the node and the particular application during the scheduled time period.

Identifying and managing connected nodes as reservable resources in a network

In one embodiment, a device in a network stores an archive image to a storage location of the device. The archive image comprises a plurality of compressed files. For one or more of the files, the device copies a segment of a particular file in the archive image to a segment copy in the storage location of the device and deletes the segment of particular file from the archive image. The device repeats the copying and deleting steps until the particular file has been fully deleted from the archive image. The device reconstitutes the particular file by merging the segment copy with one or more other segment copies associated with the particular file.
