System and method for implementing cloud mitigation and operations controllers are described. One embodiment is a system for controlling operation of a cloud computing environment, wherein the system comprises a repository for storing data regarding characteristics of the cloud computing environment, wherein the stored data includes policy notations designating compliance or noncompliance of the data with policy; an analyst module for analyzing the stored data in combination with external report information regarding the cloud computing environment and for providing results of the analysis; and a controller for evaluating the analysis results and issuing instructions for controlling operation of the cloud computing environment based on the evaluating.

Techniques managing complex dependencies in a file-based team environment are provided. A software module is represented as an object. The object is defined via a file. The file includes relationships, and some of the relationships define dependencies to other objects. In some cases, attributes for the object are also included in the file and are defined via references to still other objects. The relationships and the attributes are carried with the object via the file.

Techniques for validating services for deployment in an intelligent workload management system are provided. A service is created with workloads and software products. Test modules are integrated into the service to test each of the products. The service with the test modules is executed and test results are produced. The test results are compared against known results and a decision is made to deploy the service to a cloud processing environment or to require the service to be retested.

Techniques for identifying and linking related content are provided. A principal content network node is received having principal-defined content organized around a principal-defined topic. Local content of the principal is also acquired. The principal-defined content and the local content are evaluated to derive relationships associated with principal identities, principal reputations, and the principal-defined topic. A content network is established that links the principal content network node to other content network nodes having the local content; the links are maintained in response to the relationships.

Techniques for evaluating patent impacts are provided. A claim of a patent is normalized and an abstract of the claim is generated. The abstract is used to search a repository of target sources and their corresponding abstracts. Related abstracts found during the search are returned for purposes of evaluating the claim in view of data sources associated with the related abstracts.
摘要:
A Request for content is validated for a specific level of service that is to be provided over a network when making the request for the content and when delivering the content to satisfy the request over the network. A network transaction is tagged representing the request and the delivery of the content. Resources that comport with the specific level of service are designated to handle the network transaction and the transaction is injected into the network. Usage of the resources is monitored as the network transaction is processed.

Methods and apparatus enforce computing policies of an enterprise in a distributed manner so that idiosyncratic services to a computing device can be minimized or altogether eliminated. Pluralities of virtual machines are arranged on one or more computing devices and define, for example, applications specified by a user and shared services approved by the enterprise. A central library stores the virtual machines and each is available for check-out by users. A manager evaluates the virtual machines for satisfactory compliance with the computing policies at a time when the virtual machines are resident in the library. Upon confirmation of satisfactory compliance, the applications and shared services are available for deployment to users. Otherwise, the virtual machines are centrally serviced for compliance and/or tested before redeployment. Libraries, managers, software program products, threat assessment, and policy management are other features, to name a few.

Techniques for establishing a trusted cloud service are provided. Packages are created for services that include certificates, configuration information, trust information, and images for deploying instances of the services. The packages can be used to deploy the services in trusted environments and authenticated to deploy in sub environments of un-trusted environments. The sub environments are trusted by the trusted environments. Also, clouds are prospected for purposes of identifying desirable clouds and creating the packages for deployment.

Mechanisms to build dynamic locations to reduce brittleness in a team environment are provided. A project includes resources, each resource is assigned a key. Each key is mapped to a current location for its corresponding resource. The keys and locations are maintained in an index. Locations for the resources can change as desired throughout the lifecycle of the project and as changes occur the index is updated. When references are made within the project to the resources, the references are translated to the keys, if necessary. The keys are then used for accessing the index and dynamically acquiring the current locations for the resources at the time the references are made.

Methods and systems are provided for trusted key distribution. A key distribution or an identity service acts as an intermediary between participants to a secure network. The service provisions and manages the distribution of keys. The keys are used for encrypting communications occurring within the secure network.
