Patent number: 11436211Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for renaming a database table with minimized application downtime are disclosed. A database receives a table rename request for a table having a first table name. Routing metadata comprises a mapping of the first table name to a table identifier and a mapping of the table identifier to one or more partitions. The table rename request indicates a second table name. The database generates updated routing metadata responsive to the table rename request. The updated routing metadata comprises a mapping of the second table name to the table identifier and the mapping of the table identifier to the one or more partitions. The database receives, from a client application, one or more access requests indicating the second table name. The database routes the one or more access requests to the one or more partitions based at least in part on the updated routing metadata.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2020Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Somasundaram Perianayagam, Akshat Vig, Nicholas Gordon, Ravi Math, Divyank Duvedi, Chase Kernan, Elie Gharios, Robert Kenny, Jeffrey John Wierer

Patent number: 9737387Abstract: A system is provided for collecting cellular material from fish for subsequent DNA analysis. A channel includes a sample collection zone. A fluid ejector is directed into the sample collection zone. A fluid collector is communicated with the sample collection zone. A controller is configured to coordinate ejection of a fluid jet from the fluid ejector and collection of a fluid sample by the fluid collector. The fluid jet dislodges cellular material such as scales and mucous from the fish. The fluid collector collects that cellular material in a fluid sample for subsequent DNA analysis.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2016Date of Patent: August 22, 2017Assignee: The North Umpqua FoundationInventor: Garry Robert Kenny

Patent number: 9142335Abstract: The present invention relates to cables made of twisted conductor pairs. More specifically, the present invention relates to twisted pair communication cables for high-speed data communications applications. A twisted pair including at least two conductors extends along a generally longitudinal axis, with an insulation surrounding each of the conductors. The conductors are twisted generally longitudinally along the axis. A cable includes at least two twisted pairs and a filler. At least two of the cables are positioned along generally parallel axes for at least a predefined distance. The cables are configured to efficiently and accurately propagate high-speed data signals by, among other functions, limiting at least a subset of the following: impedance deviations, signal attenuation, and alien crosstalk along the predefined distance.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2013Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: Tyco Electronics Services GmbHInventors: Robert Kenny, Stuart James Reeves, Keith Ford, John W. Grosh, Spring Stutzman, Roger Anderson, David Wiekhorst, Frederick W. Johnston

Patent number: 8794833Abstract: A novel bag for holding, transporting, and pouring a bulk product is provided. The bag comprises two handles, with one handle being primarily configured for carrying (but also useful for pouring), and the other being primarily configured for pouring. The handles are positioned on adjacent sides of the bag, with the pouring handle being positioned near the bottom half of the bag to facilitate a controlled tilting of the bag. In one embodiment, the bag also includes a third handle on the same side of the bag as the pouring handle. The bag is typically formed of plastic, and can be used for salt, animal food, and other pourable products. The bag has a very high strength, with the second handle being particularly strong as a result of a longitudinal seam positioned adjacent that handle.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2008Date of Patent: August 5, 2014Assignee: North American Salt CompanyInventors: Michael Ray Runyon, Gregory A. Crites, Robert Kenny, James A. McGillivary, Larry Bloom
