  • Patent number: 11848845
    Abstract: Described herein is a system and method for testing a computing device, such as a server, to minimize network impact. A computing device that is new or needs to be evaluated, such as an edge server, in a content delivery network may be determined and a sibling edge server which shares a common characteristic with the edge server may be selected. Requests received on the sibling edge server may be collected and filtered to determine a subset of the requests. The subset of the requests are transmitted to the edge server for processing and evaluation.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10006624
    Abstract: An artificial evergreen tree is provided having a plurality of branch rings. Each branch ring includes a plurality of nests. A tree branch base is rotatably coupled to each of the plurality of nests and has a branch assembly coupled thereto. The branch ring includes bottom segment having a bottom segment electrical contact. The branch ring includes a top segment having a top segment electrical contact that is in electrical communication with the bottom segment electrical contact. The plurality of nests is positioned between the bottom segment and the top segment. The top segment of a first branch ring is configured to couple to the bottom segment of a second branch ring so that the top segment electrical contact of the first branch ring and the bottom segment electrical contact of the second branch ring are coupled in electrical communication.
