  • Publication number: 20240143364
    Abstract: A method of generating container image snapshots includes scanning one or more worker nodes of a container cluster to generate an image set describing container images loaded onto the one or more worker nodes. The method also includes analyzing, by a processing device, the image set to generate an image manifest comprising at least some of the container images in the image set. The method also includes generating a snapshot from the image manifest, wherein the snapshot describes a set of container images to be used to build a new worker node. The method also includes storing the snapshot in a local memory of the container cluster. The method also includes, responsive to an instruction to provision the new worker node, loading the set of container images from the local memory to the new worker node and building a container for each of the container images in the set.

  • Publication number: 20240103818
    Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing an annotation driven just in time and state-based RBAC policy control are disclosed. The method inserts an annotation into a code base that includes a function. The annotation identifies a resource corresponding to the function. The method compiles the code base into compiled code, which includes inserting, based on the annotation, a first request prior to the function that requests permission to access the resource; and inserting, based on the annotation, a second request subsequent to the function to turn off permission to access the resource. The method then deploys the compiled code to a target environment.

  • Patent number: 11928452
    Abstract: The sizes of image files for deploying software in a computing environment can be reduced according to some examples described herein. In one example, a system can identify base image files that each include at least a predefined amount of dependencies relied upon by target software. The system can then select a particular base image file, from the base image files, having a smallest size as compared to a remainder of the base image files. The system can then build a customized image file from the base image file, where the customized image file is configured for deploying the target software to a computing environment.

  • Patent number: 11680418
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a common tower configured to be erected adjacent a building structure into construction. The tower comprises spaced apart columns, made of vertically aligned column hollow sections, spacedly and substantially vertically positioned adjacent the building structure, and vertically spaced apart flooring structures releasably and slidably supported by the spaced apart columns using a plurality of sliders. Each flooring structure is being capable of vertical displacement when supported by the spaced apart columns. The tower further comprises an anchoring system adapted to securely engage with the building structure to maintain the spaced apart columns substantially upright, as well as protection structures adapted to surround the flooring structures. A safe and easy erection of the tower using a common tower assembly is described.
