Abstract: Embodiments maintain high availability of software application instances in a fault domain. Subordinate hosts are monitored by a master host. The subordinate hosts publish heartbeats via a network and datastores. Based at least in part on the published heartbeats, the master host determines the status of each subordinate host, distinguishing between subordinate hosts that are entirely inoperative and subordinate hosts that are operative but partitioned (e.g., unreachable via the network). The master host may restart software application instances, such as virtual machines, that are executed by inoperative subordinate hosts or that cease executing on partitioned subordinate hosts.

Abstract translation: 实施例在故障域中保持软件应用程序实例的高可用性。 主机由主机监控。 下级主机通过网络和数据存储发布心跳。 至少部分地基于所发布的心跳，主主机确定每个从属主机的状态，区分完全不起作用的从属主机和可操作但被分区的下级主机（例如，经由网络不可达）。 主主机可以重新启动由不能操作的下属主机执行的软件应用程序实例，例如虚拟机，或者停止在分区的下级主机上执行。

Abstract: An example method for assigning rights to utilize cloud resources associated with a service provider's computing hardware is provided. The example method can include defining a rights package including multiple rights pertaining to utilization of the cloud resources. The rights package can be assigned across multiple tenants of the service provider. The example method can also include defining a global role that includes potential rights, where the global role is assignable to individual tenant users of the tenant. The global roles can be made available to multiple tenants using the service provider. The method can further include provisioning filtered rights to utilize the cloud resources to a tenant user of the tenant, the tenant user being assigned the global role. The filtered rights can include rights present in both the potential rights defined for the global role and the rights defined for the rights package.

Abstract: System and computer-implemented method for updating applications running in a distributed computing system uses an update agent associated with an existing application to make a request for update information regarding the existing application to a service to receive a response that includes a target version of the existing application and an update window of time, which is based on information contained in the request for update information. A deployment of the target version of the existing application within the update window of time is coordinated by the update agent when the target version is newer than a current version of the existing application.
