Abstract: Techniques for managing a cross-region directory service are described. A method of managing a cross-region directory service may include establishing a cross region peer connection between a first directory virtual network of a directory service in a first region of a provider network and a second directory virtual network of the directory service in a second region of the provider network, the second directory virtual network associated with a pre-allocated classless interdomain routing (CIDR) range, replicating, by a cross-region replicator, data or metadata associated with the directory service from the first region to the second region, and orchestrating one or more updates to the directory service in the second region based at least on the data or metadata replicated to the second region.

Abstract: A method for selecting multiple data items in an electronic device is provided. The method includes displaying a plurality of applications on a screen of the electronic device, each of the plurality of applications including at least one data item, activating a screen grab function in response to detecting a predetermined event, identifying the at least one data item of the plurality of applications, and displaying a list including the at least one data item of the plurality of applications on the screen.

Abstract: An arrangement in a fiber optic network device for analyzing a set of optical signals traversing the fiber optic network device is provided. The arrangement includes a set of ports for receiving and outputting the set of optical signals. The arrangement also includes a set of photodiodes, which is configured at least for receiving and forwarding the set of optical signals. The arrangement further includes a splitter, which is configured at least for receiving the set of optical signals from a first photodiode, splitting the set of optical signals into at least a first part and a second part, and forwarding the first part to a second photodiode and the second part to a third photodiode. The set of optical signals is configured to traverse the fiber optic network device irrespective whether power is provided to circuitry of the fiber optic network device.
