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.
Claims18
A method for fast start of applications in a cloud computing environment, the method comprising:
- detecting, at an edge of the cloud computing environment, that a user has ended a session for an application;
- determining whether the application is likely to be accessed by other users within a threshold period of time after the user ended the session, based at least in part on:
- determining a number of user devices currently connected to the edge;
- determining a ratio of an average number of user devices that access the application at a given time to a total number of user devices connected to the edge at the given time;
- calculating, based on the ratio, a predicted number of user devices of the user devices currently connected to the edge that will access the application;
- and
- determining whether the predicted number of user devices exceeds a threshold number of user devices;
- and
- in response to determining that the application is likely to be accessed by other users within the threshold period of time, placing the application in a memory-resident state.

A system for fast start of applications in a cloud computing environment, the system comprising:
- input/output circuitry;
- and
- control circuitry configured to:
- detect, at an edge of the cloud computing environment, that a user has ended a session for an application;
- determine whether the application is likely to be accessed by other users within a threshold period of time after the user ended the session, based at least in part on:
- determining a number of user devices currently connected to the edge;
- determining a ratio of an average number of user devices that access the application at a given time to a total number of user devices connected to the edge at the given time;
- calculating, based on the ratio, a predicted number of user devices of the user devices currently connected to the edge that will access the application;
- and
- determining whether the predicted number of user devices exceeds a threshold number of user devices;
- and
- in response to determining that the application is likely to be accessed by other users within the threshold period of time, place the application in a memory-resident state.
