Abstract: A system for disengaging a drive shaft from a bearing support. An assembly formed by the drive shaft and the bearing support is placed above a cylinder, which pushes on the drive shaft by passing by the central hole of the bearing support. The bearing support is driven upwards, but is blocked by a first and a second force transfer device, which allows the drive shaft to be disengaged from the bearing support.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for facilitating identification of electronic data exfiltration. A message transmission log and screenshot metadata are obtained. A screenshot corresponding to the screenshot metadata is matched to a sent electronic message, such as an email, having a file attachment represented in the message transmission log to generate an event. The screenshot metadata indicates that the screenshot was captured prior to when the message transmission log indicates the electronic message was sent. An anomaly score is determined for the sent electronic message is determined by applying unsupervised machine learning, such as by applying an isolation forest, to score the sent electronic message relative to a baseline. The anomaly score meeting or exceeding an anomaly threshold is treated as potentially being indicative of electronic data exfiltration.

Abstract: Systems and methods for securing an edge ring to a support ring are described. The edge ring is secured to the support ring via multiple fasteners that are inserted into a bottom surface of the edge ring. The securing of the edge ring to the support ring provides stability of the edge ring during processing of a substrate within a plasma chamber. In addition, the securing of the edge ring to the support ring secures the edge ring to the plasma chamber because the support ring is secured to an insulator ring, which is connected to an insulator wall of the plasma chamber. Moreover, the support ring and the edge ring are pulled down vertically using one or more clasp mechanisms during the processing of the substrate and are pushed up vertically using the clasp mechanisms to remove the edge ring and the support ring from the plasma chamber.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented methods, software, and systems for obtaining incoming alerts associated with tickets generated for health status issues identified by applications for central components of a cloud platform environment. The obtained incoming alerts are aggregated to determine a root cause ticket. A set of incoming alerts is associated with a first central component running at a first data center from one or more data centers of the cloud platform environment. The set of incoming alerts are generated based on a set of tickets logged at a first ticketing system of the first data center by one or more applications running on the first data center. A root cause ticket is generated to combine the set of tickets corresponding to the set of incoming alerts, and the root cause ticket identifies the first central component as associated with a first health status issue.
