Abstract: A request to configure a connect cluster including one or more connectors for a cloud computing system is received. The request include a desired connector state. A connector specification file is automatically generated based on the desired connector state for the connect cluster via a declarative application programming interface (API). Application resources associated with the connect cluster are automatically configured based on the specification file.

Abstract: A deployment request is received for a plurality of clusters within a plurality cloud computing environments. The deployment request relates to one or more operational actions for computing devices associated with the plurality of clusters. The plurality of clusters is associated with a single application programming interface (API). A set of standards are received for the plurality of clusters from the API. The plurality of clusters is configured according to the set of standards to create a configured plurality of clusters. The configured plurality of clusters are deployed within the plurality of cloud computing environments.

Abstract: Techniques are described for a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) request monitoring application that provides an automated solution for managing cross-region compliance of incoming HTTP requests received by a web application or service. An HTTP request monitoring application comprises a plurality of modular components that can be readily integrated into a request processing pipeline of a web server or, more generally, into any application that processes HTTP requests. The components can include, for example, one or more analysis components, used to analyze various data elements contained in HTTP requests to estimate an origin requests, and one or more action components, used to perform various actions responsive to analysis components identifying potentially non-compliant requests (e.g., where such actions may include blocking the incoming requests, logging information about the requests, generating notifications, sending metrics to a monitoring service, etc.).

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for fastening insulation to a metal panel are disclosed. One apparatus includes a frame; a capacitor discharge welder; a panel support bar, preferably being non-marring of a metal panel; a hopper for receiving weld pins and the weld pins; PLC controls; and a grounding clamp. Another apparatus includes a weld table, a weld pin hopper, a weld head, a welder power supply, a carriage for the weld head, a motor for moving the weld head on the carriage and a motor for moving the carriage the length of the weld table.

Abstract: Hanger strips for securing insulation material to a surface of a structure formed of sheet metal material including a plurality of bases which are connected by one or more breakable tabs integrally formed between each pair of adjacent bases and wherein first open slots extend from each of the breakable tabs toward opposite side edges of the bases and wherein a shank extends from each of the bases in a common direction and wherein pluralities of strips are oriented in first and second assemblies of rows of strips having their shanks opposing one another and their bases overlapping one another such that tips of the shanks are safely enclosed between the bases of the opposing assemblies and seated within the first open slots.
