Abstract: A system for inspecting objects includes an imaging assembly, a detection module, an analysis module, and a memory. The imagining assembly can be a borescope that enters an unlit, closed conduit to inspect objects that are components of a turbine engine. Using an artificial light source to illuminate the conduit and one or more objects of the turbine engine, the borescope can obtain a video image of the one or more objects of the turbine engine. The video image can be used to determine a rank of distress for the one or more objects.

Abstract: In one implementation, sub-interfaces are defined in Layer three (L3) tunnels, such as generic routing encapsulization (GRE) or Internet protocol security (IPsec) tunnels. Sub-interfaces inside a L3 tunnel may be preferred to using several L3 tunnels. The flow label of the tunnel header is used to define sub-interfaces of a tunnel interface. The flow label is populated with a routing instance identifier to index the sub-interfaces.

Abstract: Maintaining a service on a cloud network may include receiving a set of status data associated with the service and performing a scale action on the cloud network based on a scale rule applied to the set of status data. The set of status data may be related to a set of resources utilized by the service, a performance level of the service, and a workload volume of the service. The scale rule may include a utilization condition, a quality condition, a workload condition, and a budget condition.

Abstract: A system (100) includes a resource model (120) that includes application parameters (184) and computing resource parameters (194) that describe how an application and platform are implemented on cloud resources (110). A topology model (140) includes linkage structures (144) that link the application parameters (184) and the computing resource parameters (194) to describe a topology for the application and the platform on the cloud resources (110). A monitoring policy template (150) includes a policy (154) based on the linkage structures (144) in the topology model (140), wherein the policy (154) is to provide an abstracted specification to enable monitoring the topology for the application and the platform on the cloud resources (110).
