Systems, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products that can facilitate generating and applying meta-policies for application deployment environments are provided. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a state analyzer that can analyze a first application deployment environment to identify a first configuration of the first application deployment environment. The computer executable components can further comprise a policy generator that generates a meta-policy based on the identified first configuration.

Generation and application of meta-policies for application deployment environments

Techniques are provided for automated employment of respective quota managers for framework instances, where the respective quota managers can negotiate amongst themselves to manage usage of a resource of a shared computing system in relation to a quota for the resource for a tenant of the shared computing system. This can allow tenants to share their quota among multiple frameworks, enable quota exchange between multiple frameworks, and choose a quota with a minimum costs, and thus maximize savings.

A method for operating a teleconference includes receiving a first video and audio signal from a first teleconference participant and receiving a second video and audio signal from a second teleconference participant. The method further includes relaying the first video and audio signal to the second teleconference participant and relaying the second video and audio signal to the first teleconference participant. The method additionally includes analyzing the first video and audio signal using a plurality of behavior analytics to determine a level of participant engagement of the first teleconference participant. The method further includes determining that the first teleconference participant is not engaged when the determined level of participant engagement is below a predetermined threshold.

Using a metadata of a layer, a prediction factor including a level of participation of the layer in a set of container images is computed. Each container image includes a corresponding set of layers and is usable to configure a container in a container-based virtualized data processing environment. Using a set of levels of participation corresponding to a set of layers, and using a condition in a prediction algorithm, a subset of layers that have to be pre-provisioned at a node is predicted. The subset of layers is adjusted, to form an adjusted subset of layers, by looking ahead at a container requirement of a workload that is planned for processing at a future time. The adjusted subset of layers is caused to be provisioned on the node prior to the future time.

A method, system and computer program product for servicing media content. In one embodiment, the media content is processed by having each of a group of services process increments of the media content, one increment at a time; and the order in which the services process these increments is orchestrated to process all of the media content in accordance with a defined procedure. In one embodiment, the increments of the media content are passed, one increment after another, to at least a plurality of the services in a defined order. In an embodiment, each time one of the plurality of services passes one of the increments of the media content to a subsequent one of the services in the defined order, the one of the plurality of services requests another increment of the media content from a preceding one of the services in the defined order.

Composite service provisioning is provided. One or more processors pre-provisions a first pool of service instances of a first composite service. One or more processors pre-provisions a second pool of service instances of a sub-service of the first composite service, wherein instances of the first pool of service instances have placeholder credentials identifying the second pool of service instances.

Composite service pre-provisioning

A tool for autoscaling applications in a shared cloud resource environment. The tool registers, by one or more computer processors, one or more trigger conditions. The tool initiates, by one or more computer processors, a scaling event based, at least in part, on at least one of the one or more trigger conditions. The tool determines, by one or more computer processors, a scaling decision for the scaling event based, at least in part, on one or more scaling rules related to the one or more trigger conditions.

Autoscaling applications in shared cloud resources

Composite service provisioning is provided. A processor receives a first demand value of a first composite service. The processor identifies a sub-service based on the first composite service. The processor pre-provisions a first pool of service instances corresponding to the first composite service, the first pool of service instances having a quantity of service instances based, at least in part, on the first demand value. The processor determines a second demand value of the sub-service based, at least in part, on the quantity of service instances of the first pool of service instances. The processor pre-provisions a second pool of service instances corresponding to the sub-service, the second pool of service instances having a quantity of service instances based, at least in part, on the second demand value. The processor modifies each of the first pool of service instances with placeholder credentials that identify the second pool of service instances.

Systems and methods for creating and processing context sensitive media objects are disclosed. One method is directed to processing a context sensitive media object in a target context. The method includes receiving an object with one or more object rules embedded within the object such that the one or more object rules are propagated with the object. Further, a determination of whether the object is context sensitive is made. If the object is context sensitive, the method prioritizes between the one or more object rules and one or more context rules related to a target context. In addition, a determination of which method or methods should be executed to process the object in the target context is made based on the prioritization.
