  • Patent number: 12278040
    Abstract: An inductor component and a method for manufacturing an inductor component that enables the inductor component to be miniaturized. An inductor component includes an annular core; and a coil including a plurality of pin members and wound on the core with neighboring pin members connected to each other. A first pin member and a second pin member both adjacent to each other have a welded part in which an end face of an end part of the first pin member and a peripheral surface of an end part of the second pin member are welded to each other. A width of a part, of the first pin member, except the welded part is smaller, as viewed from a direction along a center line of the end part of the second pin member, than a width of a part, of the second pin member, except the welded part.

  • Patent number: 12272486
    Abstract: A common mode choke coil includes a core, and first and second coils opposed to each other and wound on the core. The core can have a square shape, or an elongated shape having a long axis and a short axis when viewed in a direction along a central axis of the core. Each of the first and second coils is a single-layer coil. An area of a cross-section of the core taken perpendicular to a circumferential direction of the core is constant in the circumferential direction of the core. The cross-section of the core has a quadrilateral shape.

  • Publication number: 20240250916
    Abstract: A multitenant management system selects a name space corresponding to a user from a plurality of name spaces and determines whether the user is a legitimate user by using user management information of the name space. When a result of the determination is positive, the system determines whether a resource of an access destination conforming to the received resource access request falls within a resource access range corresponding to one tenant scope indicated by the user management information of the selected name space. When the result of the determination is positive, the system executes the resource access request.

  • Patent number: 11630734
    Abstract: A scale-out storage system includes a plurality of computer nodes each of which has a memory and a processor, and a storage apparatus. The computer nodes have one or more redundancy groups each of which is a group for metadata protection. Each of the one or more redundancy groups includes two or more of the computer nodes including a primary node being a primary computer node and a secondary node being a secondary computer node, and a failover is performed from the primary node to the secondary node. The memory of the primary node has stored therein metadata related to the redundancy group and to be accessed for control. The metadata is redundantly stored in the memory of the primary node and the memory of the secondary node.

  • Patent number: 11599279
    Abstract: In an information processing system, a storage control server (storage control node) that has received a read request of data from a compute server (compute node) transmits the read request to a drive box. The drive box that has received the read request from the storage control server reads encrypted read target data corresponding to the read request from non-volatile storage media, decrypts the read target data with key data acquired at a predetermined timing, and then transmits the decrypted read target data to the compute server as a read request source.

  • Patent number: 11592999
    Abstract: The storage part receives an I/O request including the ID of software, information regarding a storage area to and from which the software performs input and output, and a token. The storage part checks the I/O request against the software ID, the information regarding the storage area, and the token received from an I/O control part so as to determine whether access to the storage part is allowed. Upon determination that the access to the storage part is allowed, the storage part processes the I/O request.

  • Publication number: 20220255940
    Abstract: A system that controls access to a resource by a user stores policy information for determining a condition with respect to an operation of the resource. The system acquires a first access request that shows a predetermined operation to a first resource by the user from a user terminal. The system acquires user state information that shows a current state of the user from the user terminal. The system determines a condition in case of access by the user based on the user state information. The system determines whether to authorize the first access request based on the policy information and the condition in case of access.
