Manage a request for a computing service through a hub solution available on a network. The underlying network fabric is the communication bus between individual processes that make up a service request. A process orchestrator may publish an Internet Protocol (IP) address for service requests such as printing services, email services, Active Directory (AD) services and similar service requests. The process orchestrator may determine which processes are to be executed to complete the service request and offload the processes to an available computing resources on the network. Examples of computing resources for each process include a virtual machine and a hardware based process engine. The process orchestrator may manage the processes and act as the primary point of interface for an endpoint host requesting the service.

Process as a network service hub

A computer-implemented method includes: receiving, by a computing device, sensor data relating to the attributes of garment worn by a user; determining, by the computing device, the attributes of the garment based on receiving the sensor data; determining, by the computing device, the user's shopping interest based on determining the attributes of the garment; generating, by the computing device, a targeted advertisement based on the user's shopping interest; and outputting, by the computing device, the targeted advertisement for display at a merchant facility.

Determining a user's shopping interests based on sensor data identifying attributes of the user's garment

A computer-implemented method comprises: generating, by a computing device, a computer-accessible corpus including evidence passage generation information; storing, by the computing device, the corpus; automatically generating, by the computing device, evidence passages that support a proposer's response to a customer's proposal request, wherein the evidence passages include a narrative identifying the proposer's capabilities to satisfy evaluation criteria in the proposal request, and wherein the narrative is based on customer-specific information, wherein the generating includes accessing and searching the corpus via an application programming interface (API); and outputting, by the computing device, the evidence passages as an electronic document that is editable via software running on a user device via a user interface.

Alert management may include receiving, by a monitoring module from one or more disparate monitored sources, an alert, where the alert is a data structure that includes a plurality of fields; storing, by the monitoring module, the alert in a database; processing, by the monitoring module periodically at predefined intervals, the database, including identifying, in dependence upon a predefined ruleset, one or more alerts; storing, by the monitoring module, the identified alerts in a staging table, including creating, for each of the identified alerts, a primary key in dependence upon the fields of the identified alert; populating, by the monitoring module for each of the alerts stored in the staging table, one or more attribute fields of the alert in dependence upon the created primary key of the alert; and storing, by the monitoring module, the populated alerts in the database.
