Patent number: 11960464Abstract: A materialization configuration request is received via a programmatic interface from a client of a journal-based multi-data-store database. The request indicates a partitioning rule to be used to select, for respective writes indicated in committed transaction entries of a journal, the materialization node at which the writes are to be stored. A control plane component of the database verifies that a set of materialization nodes corresponding to the partitioning rule has been established, and initiates the propagation of writes from the journal to the materialization nodes by respective write appliers.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2018Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Timothy Daniel Cole, John Michael Morkel, Tate Andrew Certain, Christopher Richard Jacques de Kadt, Artem Danilov, Andrew Wayne Ross, Allan Henry Vermeulen

Publication number: 20210351402Abstract: Commercially-available lithium metal foils have been found to have a high density of crystalline defects. When such foils are used as the anode in a secondary lithium metal battery cell, repeated cycling may lead to the formation of lithium shunts near the crystalline defects, which can cause shorting. Methods described herein may be used to reduce the density of crystalline defects in lithium metal foils. Such lithium metal can be used as the anode in lithium battery cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2021Publication date: November 11, 2021Inventors: Timothy Henry Westmore, Hany Basam EITOUNI, Almira NUVAL, Russell Clayton Pratt
