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 memory circuit includes a first memory array, a second memory array and a switch module, wherein the first memory array has a first node and a second node, the second memory array has a third node and a fourth node, the first node is coupled to a first supply voltage, and the fourth supply voltage is coupled to a second supply voltage smaller than the first supply voltage. The switch module is coupled to the second node, the third node, the first supply voltage and the second supply voltage. When the memory circuit is operated under an inactive mode, the switch module electrically connects the second node to the third node, electrically disconnects the second node from the second supply voltage, and electrically disconnects the third node from the first supply voltage.

Abstract: Au automated laser pressing system assembles and aligns a laser header subassembly to a lens housing. The automated system generally includes a precise press system and a fast fiber alignment system. The press system precisely presses the housing onto the header, or the header onto the housing, and the fiber alignment system keeps a fiber in alignment with light passed through the lens to measure the laser header to lens housing alignment. Feedback from the fiber alignment system to the housing press system is used to precisely and automatically adjust the alignment as necessary before the housing and header are permanently affixed.
