System and techniques for abandoned object detection are described herein. a fence is established about a person and an object is detected within the fence. An entry is created in an object-person relationship data structure to establish a relationship between the person and the object within the fence. Then, the position of the object is monitored until an indication that the fence is terminated is received. If it is detected that the object is outside the fence during the monitoring, the person is alerted.

System and techniques for power-based adaptive hardware reliability on a device are described herein. A hardware platform is divided into multiple partitions. Here, each partition includes a hardware component with an adjustable reliability feature. The several partitions are placed into one of multiple reliability categories. A workload with a reliability requirement is obtained and executed on a partition in a reliability category that satisfies the reliability requirements. A change in operating parameters for the device is detected and the adjustable reliability feature for the partition is modified based on the change in the operating parameters of the device.

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for vehicle-occupancy-based and user-preference-based smart routing, and autonomous volumetric-occupancy measurement. In an embodiment, a system is configured to receive from a user device associated with a user, a routing-options request for routing options between two locations, and to responsively identify one or more routing options between the two locations based at least in part on occupancy data for a vehicle that would be utilized for at least a portion of at least one of the identified routing options. The occupancy data is based on an output of an automated occupancy-measurement system onboard the vehicle. The system is also configured to provide the one or more identified routing options to the user device. In some embodiments, the occupancy data is obtained using volumetric-occupancy measurement. Some embodiments relate to volumetric-occupancy measurement conducted by autonomous mesh nodes.

Embodiments described herein are generally directed to the use of sidecars to perform dynamic Application Programming Interface (API) contract generation and conversion. In an example, a first sidecar of a source microservice intercepts a first call to a first API exposed by a destination microservice. The first call makes use of a first API technology specified by a first contract and is originated by the source microservice. An API technology is selected from multiple API technologies. The selected API technology is determined to be different than the first API technology. Based on the first contract, a second contract is dynamically generated that specifies an intermediate API that makes use of the selected API technology. A second sidecar of the destination microservice is caused to generate the intermediate API and connect the intermediate API to the first API.

Dynamic application programming interface (API) contract generation and conversion through microservice sidecars

Techniques for expanded trusted domains are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, a trusted domain can be established that includes hardware components from a processor as well as an off-load device. The off-load device may provide compute resources for the trusted domain. The trusted domain can be expanded and contracted on-demand, allowing for a flexible approach to creating and using trusted domains.

Technologies for expanded trusted domains

Embodiments described herein are generally directed to assigning virtual machine (VM) workloads to groupings/partitions of accelerator resources. In an example, a processing resource of a host system maintains: (i) a resource data structure containing resource utilization information for each of one or more accelerators associated with the host system; and (ii) a group data structure containing information regarding each group of multiple groups of one or more virtual functions (VFs) of the one or more accelerators that has been assigned for use by a respective VM of multiple VMs running on a virtual machine monitor (VMM) of the processing resource. A request to deploy a workload associated with a first VM is received. Responsive to the request, the workload is assigned to a VF of a group of the multiple groups determined to have resource capacity available to satisfy expected resource utilization of the workload.

Dynamic routing of workloads to accelerator resources

An apparatus to facilitate provenance audit trails for microservices architectures is disclosed. The apparatus includes one or more processors to obtain provenance metadata for a microservice from a local blockchain of provenance metadata maintained for the hardware resource executing a task performed by the microservice, the provenance metadata comprising identification of the microservice, operating state of at least one of a hardware resource or a software resource used to execute the microservice and the task, and an operating state of a sidecar of the microservice during the task; access one or more policies established for the microservice; analyze the provenance metadata with respect to the one or more policies to identify if there is a violation of the one or more policies; and generate one or more evaluation metrics based on whether the violation of the one or more policies is identified.

Provenance audit trails for microservices architectures

Embodiments described herein are generally directed to a transparent and adaptable mechanism for performing secure application communications through sidecars. In an example, a set of security features is discovered by a first sidecar of a first microservice of multiple microservices of an application. The set of security features are associated with a device of multiple devices of a set of one or more host systems on which the first microservice is running. Information regarding the set of discovered security features is made available to the other microservices by the first sidecar by sharing the information with a discovery service accessible to all of the microservices. A configuration of a communication channel through which a message is to be transmitted from a second microservice to the first microservice is determined by a second sidecar of the second microservice by issuing a request to the discovery service regarding the first microservice.

Secure application communications through sidecars

Embodiments described herein are generally directed to the use of sidecars to perform dynamic Application Programming Interface (API) contract generation and conversion. In an example, a first call by a first microservice to a first API of a second microservice is intercepted by a first sidecar of the first microservice. The first API is of a first API type of multiple API types and is specified by a first contract. An API type of the multiple API types is selected by the first sidecar. Responsive to determining the selected API type differs from the first API type, based on the first contract, a second contract is generated by the first sidecar specifying a second API of the selected API type; and a second sidecar of the second microservice is caused to generate the second API and internally connect the second API to the first API based on the second contract.

Embodiments described herein are generally directed to intelligent management of microservices failover. In an example, responsive to an uncorrectable hardware error associated with a processing resource of a platform on which a task of a service is being performed by a primary microservice, a failover trigger is received by a failover service. A secondary microservice is identified by the failover service that is operating in lockstep mode with the primary microservice. The secondary microservice is caused by the failover service to takeover performance of the task in non-lockstep mode based on failover metadata persisted by the primary microservice. The primary microservice is caused by the failover service to be taken offline.
