Based on the image, table features of one or more tables in the document are determined. One or more table data representations that were generated based on the table features are identified. The word data representations and the one or more table data representations are input into a machine-learned model to generate a document data representation for the document. A task is performed based on the document data representation. In a related technique, instead of the one or more table data representations, one or more layout data representations that were generated based on a set of layout features, of the document, that was determined based on the image are identified and input into the machine-learned model.

MACHINE LEARNING MODEL SELECTION FOR FORECASTING ENTITY ENERGY USAGE
Embodiments relate to generating time-series energy usage forecast predictions for energy consuming entities. Machine learning model(s) can be trained to forecast energy usage for different energy consuming entities. For example, a local coffee shop location and a large grocery store location are both considered retail locations, however their energy usage over days or weeks may differ significantly. Embodiments organize energy consuming entities into different entity segments and store trained machine learning models that forecast energy usage for each of these individual entity segments. For example, a given machine learning model that corresponds to a given entity segment can be trained using energy usage data for entities that match the given entity segment. A forecast manager can generate a forecast prediction for an energy consuming entity by matching the entity to a given entity segment and generating the forecast prediction using the entity segment's trained machine learning model.

Techniques for providing machine-learned (ML)-based artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities are described. In one technique, multiple AI capabilities are stored in a cloud environment. While the AI capabilities are stored, a request for a particular AI capability is received from a computing device of a user. Also, in response to receiving training data based on input from the user, the training data is stored in a tenancy, associated with the user, in the cloud environment. In response to receiving the request, the particular AI capability is accessed, a ML model is trained based on the particular AI capability and the training data to produce a trained ML model, and an endpoint, in the cloud environment, is generated that is associated with the trained ML model. The endpoint is provided to the tenancy associated with the user.
Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with concurrently joining voice channels and web channels are described. In one embodiment, a method includes establishing a voice session to communicate over an audio channel, wherein a live agent communicates audio voice signals with a user. In response to identifying an issue from the user, transmitting a navigation link wherein the navigation link, when activated, navigates a browser to a web page associated with the issue. A web session is established to communicate between the browser and the web page. The voice session and the web session associated with the user are linked together. A call controller may then communicate simultaneously with both channels since they are connected allowing a live agent to disconnect from the audio channel.
Network entities associated with a virtual cloud network are transitioned through a certificate bundle distribution process for distributing new certificate authority certificates to the network entities. Operations may include executing, in relation to each of the network entities, a first operation associated with a first phase of the process; obtaining, for each particular network entity, individual entity information associated with a progress of a particular network entity in relation to the first phase; computing, based on the individual entity information, an aggregate metric indicative of an aggregate progress of the network entities in relation to the first phase; determining, based on the aggregate metric, that one or more transition criteria are satisfied for transitioning the network entities from the first phase to a second phase of the process; and executing, in relation to each of the network entities, a second operation associated with the second phase of the process.
Embodiments permit secure information exchange using lightweight data and near-field communication (NFC). A user can transmit lightweight data, such as one or more indicators (e.g., user indicator, scope indicator(s), documents indicator(s), etc.), to a receiving computing system via the user's wireless device and an NFC protocol. Because NFC transmissions are performed by co-located devices, this lightweight data transmission can trigger and/or continue a sophisticated workflow. For example, the receiving computing system can be associated with a product or service provider, and the lightweight data transmission can progress a workflow related to a particular product and/or service. The workflow progression can include accessing secure user information via the indicator(s) received over the NFC transmission.

TRACKING DATA CENTER BUILD DEPENDENCIES WITH CAPABILITIES AND SKILLS
A cloud-computing service (e.g., a "Puffin Service") is described. The service may maintain backward and forward compatibility between skills and capabilities. Skills may be configured to enable improved tracking of a process for building data center. There may be occasions in which an orchestrator may use both skills and capabilities to drive build operations. To enable both constructs to be utilized, the Puffin Service maintains associations between skills and capabilities. These associations enable skills to be published when published capabilities are identified and corresponding capabilities to be published for published skills, which in turn allows the Orchestrator to drive build operations based on any suitable combination of capabilities and/or skills. Previously published capabilities may be identified and system-generated skills ("shadow skills") may be used to represent the previously published capabilities, further enabling compatibility between constructs while avoiding burdensome data entry.
A cloud infrastructure orchestration service may maintain a service plan and manifest (SPAM) corresponding to a service to be bootstrapped (e.g., provisioned and deployed) to a cloud computing environment (e.g., to a data center). The service plan may specify a deterministic order of releases for performing a process to fully bootstrap the service using one or more build milestones and one or more execution units, each execution unit specifying ordered steps for transitioning between build milestones Each step may reference one or more execution target checkpoint transitions, which in turn reference an alias of a configuration file that defines a release. A manifest may be used to identify the configuration files and artifacts to be used by the releases and to validate the service plan. A SPAM may be used to reduce/eliminate nondeterministic behavior of previous orchestration systems and to provide visualizations of the bootstrapping process at different granularities.
A cloud infrastructure orchestration service (CIOS) may be used to create a service plan and manifest (SPAM) that defines a deterministic order of releases for bootstrapping a service (e.g., provisioning and deploying resources of the service) to a cloud computing environment (e.g., to a data center). A corresponding manifest may be used to identify the configuration files and artifacts to be. The manifest may be used to validate the service plan. The CIOS may be configured to validate the SPAM. If compatible, the SPAM may be added to a SPAM set. A SPAM set (a collection of SPAMs corresponding to respective services) may be used to derive a version set (identifying configuration file and artifact versions) with which a directed acyclic graph may be generated. CIOS may bootstrap various services within the data center based at least in part on traversing the directed acyclic graph.
A cloud infrastructure orchestration service (CIOS) may track build progress. A service plan may define a first execution order of releases for bootstrapping a service (e.g., provisioning and deploying resources of the service) to an execution target (ET) (e.g., a set of devices of a data center). The first execution order may be defined using transitions between ET checkpoints, with each transition and checkpoint being associated with a corresponding release. A directed acyclic graph (DAG) may be generated from any suitable number of service plans associated with various services to define a second execution order for the releases needed to bootstrap the services. At build time, CIOS may track release execution by updating the state of an ET to correspond to an ET checkpoint when the release is successful. ET states may be used by CIOS to enforce the second execution order.
A cloud infrastructure orchestration service (CIOS) may track build progress made by any suitable number of regional orchestrators. An orchestrator control plane may be configured to generate a region build plan for bootstrapping a plurality of services within a data center. The orchestrator control plane may instruct a region orchestrator to execute a build according to the build plan. The region orchestrator may be configured to update an execution state corresponding to the execution of the region build plan as it executes steps of the ordered steps of the region build plan. At any suitable time (e.g., when executing one of the steps fails), intervention data may be received with which a new region build plan may be generated. The new region build plan may be used for subsequent execution of the region build. This may enable run-time corrections to be made.
A cloud-computing service (e.g., a "Puffin Service") is described. The service may maintain service and skill catalogs corresponding to various services to be deployed to a region (e.g., during a region build). The service may host numerous user interfaces with which various service and skill metadata may be provided. In some embodiments, such data may include one or more dependencies between skills. The data managed by the cloud-computing service may be utilized to build a dependency graph. Navigation of the dependency graph may be performed via one or more user interfaces hosted by the cloud-computing service. An orchestration service (e.g., a Multi-Flock Orchestrator) may manage bootstrapping efforts for any suitable number of services during a region build based at least in part on dependencies between skills.
Skills and skills metadata may be used to define a process for building a data center. Skills of one service may depend on skills corresponding to the same or different service. A dependency graph may be generated based on these dependencies. The graph may specify an order by which orchestration operations are to be performed to build the services, thereby building the data center. During execution of the process for building the data center, health states corresponding to the skills may be tracked (based at least in part on alarms and/or namespaces associated with the skills). When an unhealthy skill is identified, the system may traverse the dependency graph to identify a root cause (e.g., failed operations corresponding to a skill on which the unhealthy skill directly/indirectly depends). A notification and/or various options may be provided to address the unhealthy state of one or both skills.
Techniques are described for data management. An example method can include processing a first message indicating that an intermediate computing system managed by the first data center has received data from a second data center in a second region. The method can further include transmitting first control instructions to the intermediate computing system to validate the data based at least in part on a first criteria. The method can further include processing validation results from the intermediate computing system. The method can further include processing a second message indicating to release the data from the first isolated environment of the intermediate computing system. The method can further include processing, by the computing system, a third message indicating that the second message originated from a computing device located in the first region. The method can further include causing the data to be released from the first isolated environment.
A cloud infrastructure orchestration service (CIOS) may track build progress made by any suitable number of regional orchestrators. The cloud infrastructure orchestration system may include any suitable number of regional orchestrators, each regional orchestrator executing in an isolated hosting environment (e.g., a service cell isolated from other service cells). An orchestrator control plane may be configured to generate a build plan for bootstrapping a plurality of services within a data center, the build plan may be generated based at least in part on a service build definition of a plurality of service build definitions, the service build definition specifying a deterministic process for bootstrapping a service of the plurality of services. The orchestrator control plane may instruct a regional orchestrator to perform bootstrapping operations according to the build plan and may track the progress of the bootstrapping operations on an ongoing basis.
A variety of testing environments and techniques are disclosed. An orchestrator control plane may generate a build plan comprising a plurality of ordered steps for bootstrapping one or more services. The build plan may be generated based at least in part on one or more service plans and manifests that individually specify a deterministic process for bootstrapping a service. The orchestrator control plan may instruct a region orchestrator executing within an isolated testing environment to execute a test build of the one or more services according to the build plan. The region orchestrator may execute, as part of executing the test build, a subset of steps from the plurality of ordered steps of the build plan utilizing resources of the isolated testing environment and in an order identified by the build plan. At any suitable time, the isolated testing environment may be reset to enable subsequent test build executions.
Techniques are provided for creating a "ubiquitous search index" which allows for full-text as well as value range-based search across all columns from multiple database tables, multiple user-defined unmaterialized views, and external sources. In one implementation, the data is indexed in a peculiarly constructed schema-based JSON format without duplicating data. The techniques maintain eventual consistency with the normalized source of truth database tables, and do not have a significant impact on the performance of transactional Data Manipulation Language (DML) operations.
