Abstract: Methods and systems for dynamically provisioning storage on a blockchain are provided. In one embodiment, a method is provided that includes receiving a request that includes a data unit for storage. The data unit may be buffered in a data stack that stores one or more data units. The data unit may be stored in the data stack until (i) a predetermined amount of time has passed and/or (ii) a size of the data stack exceeds a predetermined threshold. The data units stored in the data stack may then be encrypted and included in one or more storage transactions. The storage transactions may also include encryption keys used to encrypt the data units. The storage transactions may then be transmitted to nodes for storage on a blockchain.

Abstract: Methods and systems for storing and retrieving container images are provided. In one embodiment, a method is provided including receiving a container image, which may include executable code, and dividing the container image into a plurality of image parts. One or more image upload transactions may then be generated, and each of the image upload transactions may include at least one of the plurality of image parts. The image upload transactions may be stored on the blockchain. The image upload transactions may also include a unique identifier generated to link the plurality of image upload transactions.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an implant extraction tool for removing either cemented or non-cemented intramedullary stem implants from bones. The tool includes an elongated handle section having proximal and distal end sections with a cap section affixed to the distal end section of the elongated handle section, and cap section has a hole extending therethrough. The tool includes an attachment member having opposed ends, one of these opposed ends is configured to grip a cemented or non-cemented intramedullary implant stem in a bone. The attachment member has a size and shape to be received into the hole and the other of opposed end includes at least one hook feature for gripping the implant. The tool includes an elongated lever having an elongate proximal section and a shorter distal end section with a pivot fulcrum at a transition from the distal end section to the elongate proximal section.
