In one approach, one or more computer processors provision an instance in a cloud computing environment, wherein the instance includes one or more local disks. The one or more computer processors boot the instance from a boot image such that an operating system exists in a main memory of the instance. The one or more computer processors copy an image file to the one or more local disks of the instance, where copying the image file overwrites the one or more local disks. The one or more computer processors reboot the instance.

Embodiments relate to methods, systems, and computer program products for handling open authentication (OAuth) of an invoked web service in a process. An aspect includes determining whether an OAuth access token has expired. Another aspect includes initiating an automatic update of the OAuth access token based on determining that the OAuth access token has expired.

In one approach, a computer mounts a computing device to a target instance, where the computing device stores one or more virtual disks of a source instance, and wherein the target instance includes one or more local disks. The computer detects a disk layout of the source instance. The computer matches the disk layout of the source instance to a disk layout of the target instance. The computer attaches the one or more virtual disks of the source instance to the corresponding one or more local disks of the target instance, where the one or more virtual disks of the source instance are attached as one or more flat files. The computer copies the one or more flat files to the corresponding one or more local disks of the target instance.

The present invention sets forth a method for content responding, a method for content requesting, a content responder and a content requester. A content responder receives a first request from a content requester via a network. Then, the content responder generates a first content based on the first request. Then the content responder receives a second request from the content requester via the network. Then, the content responder generates a second content based on the second request. Next, the content responder compares the second content with the first content. After that, the content responder transmits a second response with regard to the second request to the content requester via the network. The second response is generated based on the result of comparison. According to the invention, if there is a very small difference between the first content and the second content, network bandwidth can be saved, the transmitting time of content will be reduced, and thus the waiting time of the user to view content will be reduced. The present invention is particular beneficial to the existing industries (for example, the banking industry) that adopt narrow band network widely.

A method and apparatus are provided for generating a dynamic web page. A structured data context is generated based on the result of a business logic process performed in response to a request from a browser, and a template associated with the request is loaded. The structured data context includes at least one dynamic data item for the dynamic web page. The template is able to be browsed by the browser and contains associated information that corresponds to the at least one dynamic data item of the structured data context. The at least one dynamic data item of the structured data context is merged into the template so as to produce the dynamic web page.
