Abstract: A computerized method is disclosed for storing data using a persistent queue. The computerized method includes operations of obtaining machine data from a remote electronic device, providing the machine data to a persistent queue component, wherein the persistent queue component organizes the machine data for storage on a first data store and storing a copy of the organized machine data in the first data store, and responsive to completion of the storing of the copy of the organized machine data. Further operations include transmitting an acknowledgement communication to the remote electronic device indicating storage of the copy of the machine data in the first data store, processing the machine data for storage, and responsive to completion of the storing of the processed machine data in a second data store, deleting the copy of the machine data from the first data store. The persistent queue component may include a socket server.

Abstract: In one example, a management node and an infrastructure node external to the management node may be identified in a cloud computing environment. The management node may execute a centralized management service and the external infrastructure node may execute a first infrastructure service that handles at least one infrastructure network function for the centralized management service. Further, a second infrastructure service may be deployed on the management node. Data in the first infrastructure service may be replicated to the second infrastructure service. Furthermore, the centralized management service in the management node may be repointed to the second infrastructure service such that the second infrastructure service is to operate within the management node.

Abstract: A necktie system includes a necktie extending from a first end to a second end, the necktie to secure around a neck of a wearer; a first channel attached to a back surface of the necktie, the first channel having a body with button holes extending through a thickness of the first channel; and a gap created between the channel and the back surface of the necktie such that the second end of the necktie can be inserted through the first channel and be positioned between the first channel and the back surface; the button holes are configured to secure the necktie to a plurality of buttons on a wearer's shirt.

Abstract: A computerized method is disclosed. Operations of the method include obtaining, by a data retrieval component, the data from a remote electronic device, storing a copy of the data in a first data store, providing an acknowledgement to the remote electronic device based on storage of the copy of the data in the first data store, parsing the data into one or more time-based events, storing the one or more time-based events in a second data store, and deleting the copy of at least the portion of the data from the first data store.

Abstract: In one example, a cloud computing environment may be probed to detect an actual topology including connectivity between infrastructure security nodes and management nodes. Each management node may execute a corresponding centralized management service. Each infrastructure security node may execute a corresponding infrastructure security service that handles at least one infrastructure security function. Further, a set of candidate topologies may be generated based on the actual topology. Each candidate topology may indicate a way to replicate the infrastructure security service into the management nodes. Furthermore, a replication partner associated with each of the management nodes may be determined based on a selection of one of the candidate topologies. An operation to deploy the infrastructure security service on the management nodes may be executed based on the selected one of the candidate topologies and the determined replication partners to form an embedded linked mode architecture.

Abstract: In one example, a management service may be deployed in a first container. Further, a shadow service corresponding to the management service may be generated in the first container. Furthermore, network traffic may be routed to an active one of the management service and the shadow service, via a watchdog service in the first container, to provide high availability at a service level.

Abstract: One example of a fairing for a rotorcraft includes a core material, an inner housing on a side of the core material, an outer housing on another side of the core material opposite the inner housing, and a hinge. The hinge is configured to move the fairing between an open position and a closed position. In the open position, the inner housing is configured to receive a foot traffic load while the outer housing is configured to transfer the foot traffic load to a fuselage of the rotorcraft. In the closed position, the inner housing is configured to stow in a compartment of the rotorcraft while the outer housing is configured to provide an outer mold line of the rotorcraft in the closed position.
