Appl. No.:

13/831822

Inventors:

Christopher James Brown - Issaquah WA, US
Kevin Allen Smith - Raleigh NC, US
John Braden Keiser - North Bend WA, US

Assignee:

Opscode, Inc. - Seattle WA

International Classification:

G06F 15/16
G06F 12/00

US Classification:

709223, 709226

Abstract:

Embodiments are directed towards push signaling to run jobs on available servers. Users may provide jobs or job instructions to a job control node. Job control node may determine one or more available job target nodes from among a plurality of managed nodes associated with the job control node. The job target nodes may be determined based on information included in the provided job instructions. If there are available job target nodes, the job control node may provide the job instructions to each available job target node. Further, the job control node may receive communications from one or more available job target nodes that indicates that the job target node is prepared and ready to execute the received job instructions. Next, the job control node may issue a job start command that triggers the prepared job target nodes to begin executing the provided job instructions.

G06F 9/45

US Classification:

717114, 717142

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer product for processing information embedded in a text file with a grammar programming language is provided. A text file is parsed according to a set of rules and candidate textual shapes corresponding to potential interpretations of the text file are provided by compiling a script. An output is provided, which may include either a processed value corresponding to a particular textual shape, or a textual representation of the text file that includes generic data structures that facilitate providing any of the candidate textual shapes, where the generic data structures are a function of the set of rules.

International Classification:

G06F 9/45
G06F 9/44

US Classification:

717140, 717117

Abstract:

A method and system for mapping between constructs in a domain modeling language and a relational storage language is provided. A source code authored in a source language is received and a set of constructs in the source code are identified. The set of constructs in the source code are mapped to a set of constructs in a target language. The source code is then compiled into a target code authored in the target language such that one of the source code or target code include a declarative constraint-based and/or order-independent execution model.
