  • Patent number: 9553766
    Abstract: A method, device, system, and computer program product that relate to configuration of an edge component and subcomponents to adapt data from a Device to a readable form and to communicate the adapted data to a Network End Environment. The Network End Environment includes a user interface by which a user requests that the edge component is updated to have a configuration version stored at a source. The system processes the request and updates the edge component configuration. The edge component is updated to a source configuration at a predetermined time interval according to one of a full configuration refresh or a delta configuration. Data received and processed by the edge component can thereafter be pushed to the Network End Environment for storage and/or use in a Network application. The edge component is described as a Connector, and the subcomponents of the edge component are described as Connector components.

  • Publication number: 20160162277
    Abstract: A system includes execution of a first version of a software component type within a software container, installation of a second version of the software component type in the software container during execution of the first version of the software component type, registration of supported message types of the second version of the software component type during execution of the first version of the software component type, execution of the second version of the software component type in the software container during execution of the first version of the software component type, and execution of the first version of the software component type to stop accepting incoming messages, to complete processing of jobs associated with already-accepted messages, and to transmit a handover message to the second version of the software component type comprising information associated with the completed jobs.

  • Patent number: 5193253
    Abstract: A coupling piece for releasably connecting adjacent containers includes a housing, a rotatable locking bolt positioned within the housing, a rotatable actuating lever mounted in the housing and a spring device connected to the locking bolt for normally urging the locking bolt in a locking direction. The locking bolt has a crossbar located at each end thereof that is insertable into an opening in the adjacent containers. A portion of the actuating lever engages the locking bolt so that upon rotation of the actuating lever in a first direction, the locking bolt is rotated in a releasing directing which is opposite to the locking direction.
