A method of optimizing parameter data passing between microservices in a service mesh includes receiving, by a vertical reduction interceptor, a data reduction condition of a target microservice. The data reduction condition is provided by a vertical reduction database. The method further includes intercepting, by the vertical reduction interceptor, a sender microservice that sends the parameter data to the target microservice and reducing, upon identifying that the parameter data meets the data reduction condition of the target microservice, a dimension of the parameter data based on the data reduction condition. The parameter data is sent to the target microservice. The data reduction condition is based on a specified user profile.

A method, computer program product, and computer system for optimizing locations of micro-warehouses that minimize an aggregate carbon footprint within a geographical region. A first trained artificial intelligence model is used to extract, for a geographical region, a product demand of users located in the geographical region over a fixed time period, and delivery location clusters within the geographical region. The delivery location clusters output by the first trained artificial intelligence model is input into a regression model, the regression model outputting recommended locations of temporary micro-warehouses within the geographical region. A second trained artificial intelligence model is used to modify the recommended locations and output optimized locations based on reducing an aggregate carbon footprint caused by emissions resulting from transportation to and from the temporary micro-warehouses.

Provided is a computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for displaying augmented reality (AR) visualization of a user action on an identified and/or recognized object. A processor may determine, for a user, an object interest level for each object of a plurality of known objects. The processor may detect one or more objects in an environment. The processor may identify, based on the object interest level, a first object of the one or more objects in the environment that is similar to at least one object of the plurality of known objects. The processor may determine, based on properties of the first object and the object interest level, an action for interacting with the first object. The processor may display, using an AR display, an avatar performing the determined action for interacting with the first object.

Aspects include processing the query from a client device to divide the query into a plurality of subqueries, identifying a data source that corresponds to each of the plurality of subqueries, and identifying an expected response time for each of the data sources. Based on a determination that at least one of the expected response times is greater than a default timeout threshold, aspects include classifying the query as a delayed split query and updating a timeout value of the query to be a delayed timeout threshold, which is greater than the default timeout threshold. Aspects also include performing the delayed split execution of the query.

Delayed split execution of a query

Mechanisms are provided for controlling docking of an edge capacity with a cloud computing system. A bill of materials (BOM) enabled agent, executing on the edge capacity, sends a BOM data structure specifying components of a configuration of the edge capacity. A lookup operation of components of the BOM data structure is performed in a BOM controls mapping data structure to identify controls or policies applicable to the components of the BOM data structure. The identified controls/policies are transmitted to the BOM enabled agent for execution to determine if there are any violations. Results of the identified controls or policies are received which specify whether there are any violations of the controls/policies. In response to at least one violation being detected, docking of the edge capacity with the cloud computing system is denied. In response to no violations, the edge capacity docks with the cloud computing system.

Dynamic SBOM based secure docking of edge capacity to existing computing systems

A method, computer program product, and computer system are provided for smart log shipping in a heterogeneous computing environment. A first edge device and a second edge device in a heterogeneous cloud computing environment are identified. The first edge device is caused to transmit collected log data associated with the first edge device to the second edge device based on a lack of network connectivity between the first edge device and a cloud data center. The transmitted collected log data is received from the second edge device.
