A cluster computer system including multiple network accessible computers that are each coupled to a network. The network accessible computers implement host computer programs which permits the network accessible computers to operate as host computers for client computers also connected to the network, such that input devices of the client computers can be used to generate inputs to the host computers, and such that image information generated by the host computers can be viewed by the client computers. The system also includes a cluster administration computer coupled to the multiple network accessible computers to monitor the operation of the network accessible computers. A method for providing access to host computers by client computers over a computer network includes receiving a request for a host computer coupled to a computer network from a client computer coupled to the computer network, wherein the relationship of the host computer to the client computer is to be such that after the client computer becomes associated with a host computer, an input device of the client computer can be used to generate inputs to the host computer, and such that image information generated by the host computer can be viewed by the client computer. Next, a suitable host computer for the client computer is determined, and the client computer is informed of the network address of the suitable host computer.

Methods, apparatuses and systems facilitating life-cycle management and utilization of network resources. In one embodiment, instancing, virtualization and dynamic provisioning functionality facilitating management and utilization of web services is provided. The instancing functionality supports a web services network platform allowing for registration and use of multiple instances or versions of a given web service or other network-accessible computing resource. In one embodiment, the present invention combines the virtualization and dynamic provisioning functionality to facilitate the development of client application code in routed web services network architectures. In one embodiment, a set of management functions that may be applied to management of computing resources in any IP-based network.

Nodes of the network can be non-terrestrial.

There is provided a system and method for an ontological and rules based segmentation engine for networked content delivery. There is provided a segmentation engine for use by a network accessible computing device providing customized content for a user on the network, comprising a user context regarding the user, a content management system for storing content, a controlled vocabulary categorizing content, an ontology using the controlled vocabulary for referencing the content of the content management system, segment definitions grouping users into segments matching content types to controlled vocabulary elements, segment rules using user context to associate with segment definitions, and a segmentation processor. The segmentation processor can receive a content request from the user, and by using the elements of the segmentation engine, determine the segment definitions applicable to the user and provide customized content from the content management system. The segment definitions are readily modifiable without detailed low-level knowledge.

A method for modifying a configuration of a storage system. The method includes a computer processor querying a network-accessible computing system to obtain information associated with an executing application that utilizes a storage system for a process of data mirroring. The method further includes identifying a set of parameters associated with a copy program executing within a logical partition (LIAR) of the storage system based on the obtained information, where the set of parameters dictates a number of reader tasks utilized by the copy program, where the copy program is a program associated with the process for data mirroring from the network-accessible computing system to the storage system. The method further includes executing the dictated number of reader tasks for the process of mirroring data associated with the executing application, from the network-accessible computing system to the storage system.

A container application is a native application that provides a web based application with access a computer's system resources and windowing system. If a container application is associated with a window, then the web based application can alter or control many, or all, aspects of the container application's content area and meta user interfaces (Uis). Web based applications are downloaded from application servers and run inside container applications. A container application can run a web based application as a service. Services made from web based applications running in container applications are almost indistinguishable from operating system services when there is no associated window.

A method for configuring a storage system. The method includes a computer processor receiving at a storage system, an indication to initiate data mirroring for an application. The method further includes determining a set of information associated with a network-accessible computing system that hosts the application. The method further includes identifying an analysis of historic performance data associated with data mirroring to the storage system with respect to the application. The method further includes identifying a set configuration information associated with data mirroring from among a plurality of sets of configuration information associated with data mirroring based, at least in part, on the determined set of information associated with the network-accessible computing system and the identified analysis of performance data associated with data mirroring with respect to the application. The method further includes applying the identified set configuration information associated with data mirroring for the application to the storage system.
