Abstract: In some examples, systems and methods for managing cloud resources (e.g., distributed resources) are provided. For example, a method includes: receiving a request to create a data bucket from a client application, the request including a bucket template; generating a cryptographic key for the data bucket; generating the data bucket in a cloud platform based at least in part on the bucket template; associating the cryptographic key to the generated data bucket; generating metadata associated with the generated data bucket; and providing the metadata associated with the generated data bucket to the client application.

Abstract: A fastener for incorporation into an article of clothing, for example an adjustable cap, is disclosed. The fastener includes a first fastener counterpart and a second fastener counterpart that are co-operatively configured to define a plurality of co-operating connection systems. Each one of the plurality of co-operating connection systems, independently, includes a plurality of first interlocking counterparts and a plurality of second interlocking counterparts. The first and second fastener counterparts are cooperatively configured for disposition in a plurality of connected configurations.
