Systems and methods for implementing stateful services using cloud-based resources are described. A server computing system determines existence of a first volume based on a launch of a first instance by an auto-scaling group (ASG). The first volume is to have a resource tag having a value similar to a value of a resource tag of the ASG. The first volume was previously attached to a second instance terminated by the ASG. Based on a successful determination of the existence of the first volume, the server computing system attaches the first volume to the first instance. Based on a failed determination of the existence of the first volume, the server computing system generates a second volume, attaches the second volume to the first instance, and set a resource tag of the second volume to a value similar to the value of the resource tag of the ASG.

Persistent volumes for stateful applications

Systems and methods for updating an Operating System (OS) using cloud-based resources are described. A server computing system enables an auto-scaling group (ASG) to launch one or more instances based on a first machine image. The first machine image associated with a first Operating System (OS). The ASG is associated with a stateful service and configured with a resource tag having a value similar to a value assigned to the stateful service. The computer system receives a second machine image associated with a second OS generated based on the first OS. The computer system enables the ASG to terminate the one or more instances launched based on the first machine image and to launch one or more instances based on the second machine image. The instances launched based on the first machine image and based on the second machine image are associated with persistent volumes.

Automated operating system patching using auto scaling group and persistent volumes

Methods for detecting phosphorylation of receptor tyrosine kinases ('RTKs') upon activation are provided. The method employs cells comprising two fusion products: (1) an RTK fused to a small fragment of &#x3b2;-galactosidase and (2) a phosphotyrosine binding peptide fused to the large fragment of &#x3b2;-galactosidase, where the 2 fragments weakly complex to form an active enzyme, and optionally a construct for a cytosolic RTK phosphorylating kinase, when the RTK does not autophosphoryate. To detect phosphorylation a &#x3b2;-galactosidase substrate is added to the cells, whereby product formation indicates the occurrence of phosphorylation.
