Abstract: The invention relates to a diffusor having a wall (8) that encloses an inlet having a round cross-section that transitions into an angular cross-section on the outlet of the diffusor over the height of the wall (8) of the diffusor. The transitions (15) between the sides (34 to 37) of the wall (8) have a twist in the height direction that follows the twirl of the flow of air through the diffusor. The ventilator has such a diffusor. The device has a housing on which at least two ventilators, each having one diffusor, are arranged.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for extending data models and processes in a cloud platform. An embodiment operates by selecting an entity metadata in the cloud platform. The embodiment defines an extension metadata for the entity metadata. The embodiment defines an extended entity metadata based on the entity metadata and the extension metadata. The embodiment then creates an extended entity instance in the cloud platform based on the extended entity metadata.

Abstract: A hand cleaning liquid dispenser including a fluid level gauging mechanism with a plurality, preferably three or more, vertically spaced optical sensors located closely adjacent an external of a side wall of the reservoir to each receive electromagnetic radiation transmitted through the side wall from within the reservoir with the electromagnetic radiation sensed originating from an emitter directing the electromagnetic radiation preferably through the reservoir downwardly.

Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for orchestrating a first transaction workflow performed by a plurality of microservices. An orchestration service may write to a first tracking log a first log entry for a first action of the plurality of actions. The first tracking log may be stored at a persistent storage location that, for example, is accessible in the event that the orchestration service crashes. The first log entry may describe an initial state of the first action. The orchestration service may also write a second log entry for a second action of the plurality of actions to the first tracking log. The second log entry may describe an initial state of the second action. The orchestration service may determine that the first microservice successfully completed the first action and that the second microservice failed to complete the second action. The orchestration service may initiate a compensation action to reverse the first action.

Abstract: A magnetic device including: a magnetic reader; a magnetic writer; and a variable overcoat, the variable overcoat positioned over at least the magnetic reader and writer, the variable overcoat having an overcoat layer, the overcoat layer having a substantially constant thickness and material; and at least one disparate overcoat portion, the disparate overcoat portion having a different thickness, a different material, or both, than the overcoat layer.

Abstract: A laser is configured to emit light along a substrate-parallel plane along a first surface of the laser. An etched facet is on an emitting end of a lasing cavity and an etched mirror is on another end of the lasing cavity. An etched shaping mirror redirects light received from the etched facet in a direction normal to the substrate-parallel plane. A slider comprises an optical input coupler configured to couple the light from the laser into a waveguide of the slider. At least one protrusion is disposed on the laser and at least one recession is disposed on the slider, the at least one protrusion and the at least one recession configured to align the laser with the slider to allow the light to be coupled into the optical input coupler.

Abstract: An air-bearing surface of a slider is coated with a photoresist having a high optical absorbance at or near an operational wavelength of the slider. Light is directed at a target wavelength through an entry of a waveguide integrated into the slider. The light exiting the waveguide forms a feature through the photoresist, the feature proximate a near-field transducer of the slider. A sub-micron pattern is formed using the feature.
