Methods and systems for provisioning resources includes classifying a request for a virtual server instance (VSI) according to resources specified in the request. Dependent resources that the VSI will use are predicted based on the specified resources. A provisioning plan is generated, including timing and configuration information, based on the specified resources and the dependent resources. Resources for the VSI are provisioned according to the provisioning plan, including allocating hardware resources on a computing system.

The present disclosure provides an open-air circulating pool for simulating ecological damage, and belongs to the technical field of simulation tests of ecological environment impact. The open-air circulating pool is provided with a set of devices for simulating natural ecological environments of different water quality and sediments, as well as changes in water bodies caused by a sea occupation project, discharge of a typical pollution source and a sudden leakage accident, so as to observe changing trends of an aquatic organism and an environmental element, and qualitatively and quantitatively determine a law of causality of damage. The set of devices includes an open-air wave-flow circulating pool, an additive injection apparatus and an ecological indicator sampling and detection apparatus.

Open-air circulating pool for simulating ecological damage

A method, system and computer program product for processing metrics data with graph data context analysis. Graph data representing one or more devices or sensors is stored into a first database, and metrics data generated by the devices or sensors is stored in a second database. The metrics data is then applied to the graph data for the context analysis, wherein the context analysis reflects the relationships of the devices or sensors in the graph data to the metrics data generated by the devices or sensors. The graph data comprises nodes for representing the devices or sensors, edges for representing a topology of the devices or sensors, and properties for storing the metrics data associated with the nodes and edges; and the metrics data comprises time-series data that is logged by the devices and sensors.

Processing metrics data with graph data context analysis

A processor initiates a run of a target container in a distributed computing environment. A processor detects at least one error occurring during the initiation of the target container. A processor determines at least one fix image based on the at least one error. A processor performs an error recovery of the target container based on the at least one fix image. A processor runs, in response to successfully performing the error recovery of the target container, the target container in the distributed computing environment.

Container recovery

An approach for recommending activating a safety feature on a mobile device in a vehicle. The approach includes collecting sound characteristics. Furthermore, determining if the mobile device is moving faster than a predetermined velocity and invoking grouping service on a server. The approach determines the number of the mobile device in the vehicle and determines which one of the one or more of the mobile devices belongs to the user operating the vehicle and activating a safe drive mode feature on the mobile device belonging to the user of the vehicle.
