Abstract: In general, techniques are described for network connectivity for non-colocated customers of a cloud exchange. A programmable network platform for the cloud exchange comprises processing circuitry configured to: configure a virtual network device in the data center to run a network service for a customer; receive, from the customer, a request for a remote port and network information for a network service provider connectivity service for the customer; assign, in response to receiving the request for the remote port, a remote port of the cloud exchange to the customer; and configure, in response to receiving the request for the remote port using the network information, the cloud exchange to connect the network service provider connectivity service to the virtual network device via the remote port of the cloud exchange.

Abstract: The present invention provides an elevator position compensation system which minimizing the re-leveling of an elevator car in an elevator shaft. The elevator car is suspended in the shaft by an elevator cable system and elevator motor, wherein the elevator position compensation system comprises an elevator load sensor device for determining the weight of the elevator car, and generating a load signal indicative of the determined weight. An elevator position sensor determines the position of the elevator car in the elevator shaft and generates a position signal indicative of the determined elevator car position. An elevator control system receives the load signal and the position signal, which is processed by the control system in order to calculate a change in the cable system length associated with a load change within the elevator car, and wherein the calculated change in the cable system length is compensated by the elevator motor.
