Publication number: 20240385845Abstract: Skills and skills metadata may be used to define a process for building a data center. Skills of one service may depend on skills corresponding to the same or different service. A dependency graph may be generated based on these dependencies. The graph may specify an order by which orchestration operations are to be performed to build the services, thereby building the data center. During execution of the process for building the data center, health states corresponding to the skills may be tracked (based at least in part on alarms and/or namespaces associated with the skills). When an unhealthy skill is identified, the system may traverse the dependency graph to identify a root cause (e.g., failed operations corresponding to a skill on which the unhealthy skill directly/indirectly depends). A notification and/or various options may be provided to address the unhealthy state of one or both skills.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2023Publication date: November 21, 2024Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Eric Raymond Peterson, William Nickolas Moran

Publication number: 20240385817Abstract: A cloud-computing service (e.g., a “Puffin Service”) is described. The service may maintain service and skill catalogs corresponding to various services to be deployed to a region (e.g., during a region build). The service may host numerous user interfaces with which various service and skill metadata may be provided. In some embodiments, such data may include one or more dependencies between skills. The data managed by the cloud-computing service may be utilized to build a dependency graph. Navigation of the dependency graph may be performed via one or more user interfaces hosted by the cloud-computing service. An orchestration service (e.g., a Multi-Flock Orchestrator) may manage bootstrapping efforts for any suitable number of services during a region build based at least in part on dependencies between skills.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2023Publication date: November 21, 2024Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Eric Raymond Peterson, William Nickolas Moran, Kenneth Richard Fox, Benjamin Todd Willey, William Thomas Price

Publication number: 20240385866Abstract: A cloud-computing service (e.g., a “Puffin Service”) is described. The service may maintain backward and forward compatibility between skills and capabilities. Skills may be configured to enable improved tracking of a process for building data center. There may be occasions in which an orchestrator may use both skills and capabilities to drive build operations. To enable both constructs to be utilized, the Puffin Service maintains associations between skills and capabilities. These associations enable skills to be published when published capabilities are identified and corresponding capabilities to be published for published skills, which in turn allows the Orchestrator to drive build operations based on any suitable combination of capabilities and/or skills. Previously published capabilities may be identified and system-generated skills (“shadow skills”) may be used to represent the previously published capabilities, further enabling compatibility between constructs while avoiding burdensome data entry.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2023Publication date: November 21, 2024Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Eric Raymond Peterson, William Nickolas Moran

Patent number: 12085755Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an optical fiber having a core and a cladding, where the cladding is doped with a dopant. The cladding has a dopant concentration gradient in the radial direction such that a concentration of the dopant changes with respect to radial distance from a core-cladding interface. Doping the cladding of the optical fiber enables ablation of the fiber surface with a line source to provide an ablated wedge or crack such that cleaving can be achieved by applying a stress force to the fiber after ablation or by applying a pull force during ablation.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2021Date of Patent: September 10, 2024Assignee: Corning Research & Development CorporationInventors: Anthony Sebastian Bauco, Kevin Wallace Bennett, Eric Raymond Logan
