Inventor(s): Filippo Navarria of Milano (IT) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): B07C5/36, B07C5/38

CPC Code(s): B07C5/362



Abstract: systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for shuttle lift systems to facilitate simultaneous movement of multiple shuttles across a multi-level storage structure that stores packages. the shuttle lift system may include the multi-level storage structure and a tower lift system at each end of the multi-level storage structure. one tower lift system may raise shuttles to a level of the multi-level storage structure. the other tower lift system may lower shuttles to a level of the multi-level storage structure and/or to a delivery area. the tower lift system may include cables (e.g., tethers) that are supported by a bottom portion and an upper portion of the tower lift system. shelves may be attached to the cables on either side of the tower lift system and may receive and move shuttles up/down the tower lift system. the tower lift system may have high shuttle throughput and a reduced footprint.

20240193420.LOW-DIMENSIONAL NEURAL-NETWORK-BASED ENTITY REPRESENTATION_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Arijit Biswas of Bangalore (IN) for amazon technologies, inc., Subhajit Sanyal of Bangalore (IN) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G06N3/08

CPC Code(s): G06N3/08



Abstract: systems and methods are disclosed to implement a neural network training system to train a multitask neural network (mnn) to generate a low-dimensional entity representation based on a sequence of events associated with the entity. in embodiments, an encoder is combined with a group of decoders to form a mnn to perform different machine learning tasks on entities. during training, the encoder takes a sequence of events in and generates a low-dimensional representation of the entity. the decoders then take the representation and perform different tasks to predict various attributes of the entity. as the mnn is trained to perform the different tasks, the encoder is also trained to generate entity representations that capture different attribute signals of the entities. the trained encoder may then be used to generate semantically meaningful entity representations for use with other machine learning systems.


20240195723.ROUTING MODE AND POINT-OF-PRESENCE SELECTION SERVICE_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Craig Wesley Howard of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Hardeep Singh Uppal of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): H04L43/0894, G06F16/955, G06F16/957, H04L43/0876, H04L61/4511

CPC Code(s): H04L43/0894



Abstract: systems and methods for sloppy routing are provided. a client transmits a dns query corresponding to a requested resource to a content delivery network (cdn) service provider. in some embodiments, the cdn service provider processes the dns query to determine whether a threshold content delivery bandwidth has been exceeded by data links at cache servers. in other embodiments, additionally or alternatively, the cdn service provider determines whether a content provider has exceeded a threshold network usage that indicates a price at which the cdn service provider to provide content on behalf of the content provider. using both or either of these thresholds, the cdn service provider can further process the dns query by providing an alternative resource identifier or a cache ip address, both associated with an alternative pop. in some embodiments, the cdn service provider determines a routing mode for the response to the dns query.


20240195811.USER-DEFINED NETWORK CONNECTORS BETWEEN SERVERLESS FUNCTIONS AND ISOLATED CLOUD RESOURCES_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Dharani Sankar Vijayakumar of Palo Alto CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Robert Laks of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Sushant Bhatia of Kirkland WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Ravi S. Nagayach of Aurora IL (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Prashant Kumar Singh of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): H04L9/40, G06F9/455

CPC Code(s): H04L63/10



Abstract: systems and methods are described for facilitating network traffic between serverless function executions and isolated cloud resources within virtualized network environments. virtualized network environments, by default, may be isolated such that external traffic is not permitted to enter the environment. permissions for traffic that may enter the environment are often set on the basis of network addresses. in the context of serverless functions, such permissions may be difficult to establish because executions of serverless functions can occur on a dynamically selected environment without a fixed network address. the present disclosure provides for creation of user-defined connectors that facilitate routing of network traffic between executions of serverless functions and user virtualized network environments without requiring that routing occur on the bases of network addresses.
