Abstract: Techniques for secure and efficient interfacing with a cloud computing service are described. In an embodiment, a cloud computing management service is programmed or configured to communicate with a cloud computing service. The cloud computing management service can be accessed by software engineers that are looking to deploy a software instance to a computing device of the cloud computing service. Thus, the cloud computing management service acts as an intermediary layer in front of the cloud computing service. In an embodiment, the cloud computing management service may store one or more frequently-used system parameters for deployment of software instances. The parameters conform to company's security protocols, compliance protocols, and/or other standards.

Abstract: A powered hand held device having an improved power supply with both a low power source in parallel with a high power source from ultracapacitors. The ultracapacitor power is used by the device motor during certain peak power demands which require high power to the device motor. An improved hand held tube cutter tool is provided both with and without the improved power arrangement, and includes a rotating cutter head assembly with an adjustable roller assembly providing a superior tube cut.
