Unexpectedly, the rise of serverless computing has also collaterally started the "democratization" of massive-scale data parallelism. This new trend heralded by PyWren pursues to enable untrained users to execute single-machine code in the cloud at ...

We present the design and implementation of a visual search system for real time image retrieval on JD.com, the world's third largest and China's largest e-commerce site. We demonstrate that our system can support real time visual search with hundreds ...

Emerging security solutions for cloud commonly operate in two phases, data collection and analytics. Data collection phase provides visibility into cloud resources (images, containers, VMs, etc.) and analytics derives insights built on data. Analytics ...

With the wide adoption of the Internet, digital transactions surge exponentially and so do the impersonation fraud. While machine learning techniques show strong promise to be the building block for digital fraud detection systems, clients may be ...

Kubernetes is a very popular and fast-growing container orchestration platform that automates the process of deploying and managing multi-container applications at scale. Users can specify required and maximum values of resources they need for their ...

Containers and microservices are dominating the world of data center and cloud computing. As the scale, dynamism and complexity grow, the performance of the DNS system in container clusters becomes vital. As the world's third and China's largest e-...

In this paper, we consider the problem of fair scheduling of transactions of multiple types that are submitted to a permissioned blockchain system. Permissioned blockchains are being increasingly used for enterprise applications and by design are ...

This paper introduces BcWAN, a roaming solution for an IoT LoRa-based network that allows IoT end-devices to deliver data to their home network going through foreign 1 gateways.

Our architecture removes the central core network and replaces it with a ...
