Abstract

Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method, and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for code migration and deployment in an Internet-of-Things (IoT) environment. A system server (e.g., a server of a cloud-based platform, etc.) may receive a codebase and operational information for a target device (e.g., an IoT device, a mobile device, a smart device, etc.). The codebase may be modified for compatibility with the target device based on functionality for libraries of the codebase mapped to functional elements that define the functional capabilities of the target device. A codebase migration window may be identified based on an indication that an operation of the target device satisfies an operational threshold and the operational information received from the target device. The modified codebase may be transferred to the target device during the codebase migration window.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A computer-implemented method for code migration and deployment in an Internet-of-Things (IoT) environment, comprising:
receiving, by at least one computer processor, a codebase and operational information for a target device; modifying, based at least in part on respective functionality for each library of a plurality of libraries of the codebase mapped to respective functional elements of a plurality of functional elements that define functional capabilities of the target device, the codebase for compatibility with the target device; identifying, based on the operational information and responsive to an indication that an operation of the target device satisfies an operational threshold for the target device, a codebase migration window; and transferring the modified codebase to the target device during the codebase migration window.

2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining, based on metadata of the codebase, at least one of: a dependency between a library of the plurality of libraries and an additional library of the codebase, or configuration information for the codebase that corresponds to configuration information for the target device; and modifying at least one of the additional library or the configuration information for the codebase for compatibility with the target device, wherein the modified codebase comprises at least one of the modified additional library or the modified configuration information for the codebase.

3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising generating, based on the modified codebase executed on a replica of the target device, the indication that the operation of the target device executed via the modified codebase satisfies the operational threshold.

4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, based on the codebase and the operational information for the target device input into a predictive model trained to forecast codebase modifications for devices, a recommendation from the predictive model for at least one of an additional library of the codebase or an operational setting configuration for the target device, wherein the modified codebase comprises at least one of the additional library of the codebase or the operational setting configuration.

5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying the codebase migration window further comprises receiving, based on the operational information for the target device input into a predictive model trained to forecast codebase migration windows for devices, an indication of the codebase migration window.

6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the transferring the modified codebase to the target device during the codebase migration window comprises transferring the modified codebase to a device in proximity to the target device, wherein the device is configured to send the modified codebase to the target device.

7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the transferring the modified codebase to the target device during the codebase migration window comprises sending the modified codebase to the target device based on an indication from a device in proximity to the target device that at least one of: a user of the target device is not in the proximity of the target device, or the target device is in an idle state.

8 . A system, comprising:
one or more memories; and at least one processor each coupled to at least one of the one or more memories and configured to perform operations for code migration and deployment in an Internet-of-Things (IoT) environment, the operations comprising: receiving a codebase and operational information for a target device; modifying, based at least in part on respective functionality for each library of a plurality of libraries of the codebase mapped to respective functional elements of a plurality of functional elements that define functional capabilities of the target device, the codebase for compatibility with the target device; identifying, based on the operational information and responsive to an indication that an operation of the target device satisfies an operational threshold for the target device, a codebase migration window; and transferring the modified codebase to the target device during the codebase migration window.

9 . The system of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:
determining, based on metadata of the codebase, at least one of: a dependency between a library of the plurality of libraries and an additional library of the codebase, or configuration information for the codebase that corresponds to configuration information for the target device; and modifying at least one of the additional library or the configuration information for the codebase for compatibility with the target device, wherein the modified codebase comprises at least one of the modified additional library or the modified configuration information for the codebase.

10 . The system of claim 8 , the operations further comprising generating, based on the modified codebase executed on a replica of the target device, the indication that the operation of the target device executed via the modified codebase satisfies the operational threshold.

11 . The system of claim 8 , the operations further comprising receiving, based on the codebase and the operational information for the target device input into a predictive model trained to forecast codebase modifications for devices, a recommendation from the predictive model for at least one of an additional library of the codebase or an operational setting configuration for the target device, wherein the modified codebase comprises at least one of the additional library of the codebase or the operational setting configuration.

12 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the identifying the codebase migration window further comprises receiving, based on the operational information for the target device input into a predictive model trained to forecast codebase migration windows for devices, an indication of the codebase migration window.

13 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the transferring the modified codebase to the target device during the codebase migration window comprises transferring the modified codebase to a device in proximity to the target device, wherein the device is configured to send the modified codebase to the target device.

14 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the transferring the modified codebase to the target device during the codebase migration window comprises sending the modified codebase to the target device based on an indication from a device in proximity to the target device that at least one of: a user of the target device is not in the proximity of the target device, or the target device is in an idle state.

15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to perform operations for code migration and deployment in an Internet-of-Things (IoT) environment, the operations comprising:
receiving a codebase and operational information for a target device; modifying, based at least in part on respective functionality for each library of a plurality of libraries of the codebase mapped to respective functional elements of a plurality of functional elements that define functional capabilities of the target device, the codebase for compatibility with the target device; identifying, based on the operational information and responsive to an
