  • Patent number: 10585656
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed herein that facilitate automatically audited software deployment. When a software deployment event is scheduled by a user, an event manager selects and bundles data, properties, and computer readable instructions for the deployment based on a particular client, environment, and/or release packet. At the scheduled time, the event manager automatically triggers deployment of the software via an integration manager, without the need for a software engineer. The event manager monitors the integration manager throughout processing of workflow to deploy software of the release packet. In near real-time, the event manager identifies when a failure occurs, identifies the specific cause of failures in a workflow, and sends the information as an alert to a user. The event manager also facilitates restarting processing of a workflow at a particular failed step.

  • Publication number: 20050051201
    Abstract: An automatic dishwasher having a wash chamber is provided with a filter for filtering wash liquid circulated in the wash chamber. The filter includes a filter chamber outside the wash chamber. An inlet to and outlet from the filter chamber in a wall of the wash chamber allows wash liquid circulating in the wash chamber to enter the filter chamber and to flow out of the filter chamber through a filter element back into the wash chamber for filtering particulate material from wash liquid circulating in the wash chamber. A drain outlet at the bottom of the filter chamber allows wash liquid and material filtered by the filter to flow to the household drain. Sensors can be provided to detect a clogged or partially clogged filter and initiate a purge cycle to remove wash liquid and material filtered by the filter to the household drain.
