Abstract
An application likely to be accessed at an edge of the cloud computing environment is identified. The identified application is preemptively launched and then placed in a memory-resident state. When a request from a user to access the application is received, the application is brought out of the memory-resident state into an active state and parameters associated with the user are applied to the application.
Claims20
A method for fast start of applications in a cloud computing environment, the method comprising:
- identifying, at an edge of the cloud computing environment, an application likely to be accessed;
- launching, at the edge, the application;
- placing the application in a memory-resident state;
- receiving a request from a user device to access the application;
- and
- in response to receiving the request to access the application:
- bringing the application out of the memory-resident state;
- and
- applying parameters associated with a user of the user device to the application.

A system for fast start of applications in a cloud computing environment, the system comprising:
- input/output circuitry;
- and
- control circuitry configured to:
- identify, at an edge of the cloud computing environment, an application likely to be accessed;
- launch, at the edge, the application;
- place the application in a memory-resident state;
- receive, using the input/output circuitry, a request from a user device to access the application;
- and
- in response to receiving the request to access the application:
- bring the application out of the memory-resident state;
- and
- apply parameters associated with a user of the user device to the application.
