One embodiment discloses a method and apparatus for synchronizing IP information of virtual machines. The method includes: obtaining an IP relevant message of at least one virtual machine within a subnet, recording IP information and connection information of the at least one virtual machine based on the IP relevant message, and modifying connection information of a specific virtual machine in response to migration of the specific virtual machine. The apparatus corresponds to the method. With the method and apparatus above, IP information and connection information of respective virtual machines within the subnet are recorded regularly and routinely. Once a certain virtual machine is migrated, updating and modifying connection information of the migrated virtual machine is only needed, but without a need for resending a request to the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. Thus, network disruptions caused by non-synchronization of IP information when the virtual machine is migrated are avoided.

A multi-functional soft tissue wound protective sleeve includes: a waste collection bag including a bottom patch and a surface patch connected to form a cavity; a bottom ring to be inserted into a human body, to push away human tissues surrounding the bottom ring to form a surgery space; a flip ring located above the waste collection bag and having an adjustable distance with the bottom ring, to prevent waste from touching a surgical surface; a medical inner membrane connecting the bottom ring to the flip ring and defining a surgery channel to the surgery space; a positioning ring sealed with a hole edge of the surgery through-hole on the bottom patch; and a medical outer membrane connecting the positioning ring to the flip ring so as to guide waste escaping the surgery channel over the flip ring to flow into the waste collection bag.

The present invention discloses an overlay switch (OSW) and a method used by the same. A received unicast packet needs to pass a waypoint chain including a number of waypoints. A network address of a first waypoint of the waypoint chain and an underlay network address of a second OSW connected to the first waypoint are obtained. In response to a determination that the second OSW is not the first OSW the unicast packet is encapsulated into a first underlay network packet according to a specification of an overlay network. A field of a destination header of the first underlay network packet includes the underlay network address of the second OSW. A source port field of a user datagram protocol (UDP) header is set to indicate a waypoint index included in a corresponding waypoint chain. The first underlay network packet is sent to the second OSW.

Embodiments of the invention relate to reflective relay (RR) processing on logical ports for channelized links in edge virtual bridging (EVB) systems. One embodiment includes providing a virtual edge bridge (VEB) mode and a virtual Ethernet port aggregator (VEPA) mode in an EVB system on a same port of a physical switch. RR capability per channel is negotiated between a server and the physical switch in the EVB system. RR per channel is supported on the physical switch of the EVB system using RR setting information per channel.

A method of managing data transmission based on virtual local area networks includes obtaining a first VLAN property of a first physical interface and a second VLAN property of a second physical interface; in response to determining the first VLAN property and the second VLAN property are at least partially identical, obtaining a first virtual interface corresponding to the first physical interface and a second virtual interface corresponding to the second physical interface; and mapping the first physical interface and the second physical interface to an identical data channel via the first virtual interface and the second virtual interface, wherein the first physical interface and the second physical interface are located in a same processing device.

Mechanisms for performing database queries are provided. With these mechanisms, in response to a query request, a query plan intended for minimum query response time and a query plan intended for minimum query total time for the query request are obtained execution of the minimum query response time query plan and the minimum query total time query plan is started. Before the execution of the minimum query total time query plan reaches a specified point, an initial query result obtained from the execution of the minimum query response time query plan is output. In response to the execution of the minimum query total time query plan reaching the specified point, continuing the execution of the minimum query total time query plan to output remaining query results.

A method for joining tables in multiple heterogeneous distributed databases implemented by at least two data sources accessible to a federal database server over a network includes: transmitting from the federated database server a sub-command to a first of the data sources responsive to the federated database server receiving a data query; retrieving, with the federated database server, block data from the first data source related to the data query using block fetching according to the sub-command; transmitting, with the federated database server, at least a portion of the block data to a second of the data sources together with an instruction for the second data source to perform a join operation on the portion of the block data and a data table stored by the second data source related to the query; and retrieving a result of the join operation with the federated database server.
