Abstract: A method and apparatus for actuating rotating valves with fast closing times, high precision, and high force. The invention incorporates a lever arm attached to the valve shaft, accompanied by a housing for one or more cylinder-type linear actuators. A pivot mechanism allows the actuators to comply with movement. Multiple actuators can be attached to the lever arm's shaft, which pivots smoothly with the aid of a bearing. The housing securely bolts to the valve mounting flange, ensuring stability and alignment. A front guard with a position indicator window covers the lever arm, while a rear guard protects the actuators. By enabling longer and shorter strokes than the open and closed positions, multiple actuators can be precisely programmed and synchronized for optimal performance. This approach potentially improves valve actuation, offering enhanced speed, precision, and force for diverse fluid or slurry flow control applications.

Abstract: Aspects of a data environment, such as the creation, provisioning, and management of data stores and instances, are managed using a separate control environment. A user can call into an externally-facing interface of the control environment, the call being analyzed to determine actions to be performed in the data environment. A monitoring component of the control plane also can periodically communicate with the data environment to determine any necessary actions to be performed, such as to recover from faults or events in the data environment. A workflow can be instantiated that includes tasks necessary to perform the action. For each task, state information can be passed to a component in the data environment operable to perform the task, until all tasks for an action are completed. Data in the data environment can be accessed directly using an externally-facing interface of the data environment, without accessing the control plane.
