    Abstract: A node in a distributed computing environment can generate key-value pairs. The node can categorize the key-value pairs into bins, with each key-value pair being categorized into a bin spanning a range of hashed keys that includes a hashed key of the key-value pair. The node can determine nodes in the distributed computing environment that are mapped to the bins. The node can distribute each key-value pair to a node corresponding to a bin into which the key-value pair was categorized. The node can then sort any of the key-value pairs maintained on the node by hashed key or key to generate sorted key-value pairs. The node can assign index values to the sorted key-value pairs. The indexed key-value pairs may be the same each time the above process is run, regardless of the underlying topology of the distributed computing environment. This can result in stable data-processing.

    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to an apparatus, method and other techniques for receiving a request to generate a bootable image in a cloud-based computing environment, creating a block storage volume in the cloud-based computing environment in response to receiving the request, the block storage volume having one or more partitions. Further, an apparatus, method and so forth may include installing software comprising one or more files in a file system on the block storage volume in the cloud-based computing environment, creating a snapshot of the file system including the software in the cloud-based computing environment, and creating a bootable image from the snapshot of the file system in the cloud-based computing environment.

    Abstract: Data sets for a three-stage predictor can be automatically determined. For example, multiple time series can be filtered to identify a subset of time series that have time durations that exceed a preset time duration. Whether a time series of the subset of time series includes a time period with inactivity can be determined. Whether the time series exhibits a repetitive characteristic can be determined based on whether the time series has a pattern that repeats over a predetermined time period. Whether the time series includes a magnitude spike with a value above a preset magnitude can be determined. If the time series (i) lacks the time period with inactivity, (ii) exhibits the repetitive characteristic, and (iii) has the magnitude spike with the value above the preset magnitude threshold, the time series can be included in a data set for use with the three-stage predictor.

    Abstract: A first computing device connected to an internal network de-anonymizes data. A record including a surrogate key is received from a second computing device connected to an external network to the internal network. Each identity data record includes a second surrogate key, an entity identifier field value, a record type field value, and a de-identified field value. The second surrogate key uniquely identifies the respective record. The surrogate key is compared to the second surrogate key to identify a matching record. The matching entity identifier field value is selected and compared to the entity identifier field value of the plurality of records to identify a master record for the surrogate key. The record type field value includes an indicator indicating whether the record is the master record. The de-identified field value included in the identified master record is selected. The received record is supplemented with the selected de-identified field value.
