Patent number: 11513864Abstract: A resource management system of a computing resource service provider performs adoptions of virtual resource instances, such as virtual machine instances and virtual data store instances that were not instantiated as members of a logical container, into logical containers that are used to manage members of the logical containers as a group. Adopting such “candidate” resources that were not generated from programmable infrastructure templates allows the resources to be managed in accordance with an infrastructure-as-code framework, alongside resources that are generated from such templates. A template for launching infrastructure instances may be modified to include an adopted resource definition describing the configuration of the adopted resource, so that management operations can be performed on the adopted resource together with the other members of the container.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2018Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Samuel Koppes, Daryl Stephen Cooke, Julio Cesar dos Santos Lins, Bharath Swaminathan, Sayali Suhas Deshpande, Anthony Quigley, Romit Palit, Andrew John May, Courtney Ann Todd Campbell, Santosh Kalyankrishnan, Diane Diaz

Patent number: 11265795Abstract: Apparatus and methods for providing small cell backhaul are disclosed. A network node that acts as a gateway for a local communication network to a main communication network through a bonded link with the main communication network also provides a wireless communication module with a backhaul communication link to the main communication network through its bonded link. A switch module in the network node switches communication traffic between the local communication network, the wireless communication module and the bonded link to the main communication network. The network node may power the wireless communication module utilizing remote power provided by the main communication network, the local communication network, and/or a local source of power. Apparatus and methods for providing a transparent bonded link through a network access multiplexer are also disclosed, including management of the bonded link and of nodes subtending from the bonded link.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2019Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: GENESIS TECHNICAL SYSTEMS CORP.Inventors: Stephen Cooke, Keith Brown

Patent number: 11017107Abstract: A security assessment system of a computing resource service provider performs security analyses of virtual resource instances, such as virtual machine instances and virtual data store instances, to verify that certain invariable security requirements are satisfied by the instances' corresponding configurations; these analyses are performed before the instances are provisioned and deployed. If the security checks, which can be selected by the administrator of the resources, fail, the requested resources are denied deployment. Notifications identifying the faulty configuration(s) may be send to the administrative user. A template for launching virtual resource instances may be transformed into an optimized template for performing the pre-deployment security checks, such as by storing information needed to perform the checks within the optimized template itself.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2018Date of Patent: May 25, 2021Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Neha Rungta, Pauline Virginie Bolignano, Catherine Dodge, Carsten Varming, John Cook, Rajesh Viswanathan, Daryl Stephen Cooke, Santosh Kalyankrishnan

Patent number: 10661561Abstract: An electrostatic deflection inkjet printer has a main printer body separated by a vapor barrier into an electrical region and a fluid region. Electrically operated valves are provided in the fluid region. Control circuitry for deciding when to operate the valves is provided in the electrical region. Valve drive circuitry, for generating drive currents for the valves, is provided in the fluid region and is in data communication with the control circuitry via wiring, which may be a serial bus, that passes through the vapor barrier. This reduces the number of electrical connections that need to pass through the vapor barrier. A circuit carrier for the valve drive circuitry may be mounted on a valve block for the valves, and an electrically insulating material may cover the circuit carrier. The electrically insulating material may extend partially or wholly around the valve block.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2017Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: LINX PRINTING TECHNOLOGIES LTD.Inventor: Stephen Cooke

Patent number: 9211716Abstract: A capping device for an ink jet print head, includes a base, the base configured to receive an ink jet print head comprising nozzles for ejecting ink in a print direction, and a cap assembly attached to the base and configured for movement between a closed position when the print head is not printing and an open position to allow for the ejection of ink from the nozzles when the print head is printing. The cap assembly includes a cover support configured for generally planar movement with respect to the base in a direction perpendicular to the print direction and a cover attached to the cover support in a generally planar relationship thereto. The cover is adapted to provide additional movement with respect to the cover support in a direction different from the planar movement in the direction perpendicular to the print direction.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2014Date of Patent: December 15, 2015Assignee: Videojet Technologies Inc.Inventors: John Wall, Thomas E.
