Abstract: A system for accessing computing elements of a cloud computing infrastructure includes a dynamic host interface associated with an identity-based access management system. The dynamic host interface is configured to receive host catalogs from components of the cloud computing infrastructure, each host catalog including one or more host sets, each of the one or more host sets including references to one or more hosts, where each of the one or more hosts represents an addressable computing element. The system further includes a plugin-based hosts model in a memory, and being configured to receive, from the dynamic host interface, the host catalogs for identity-based access to the one or more host sets by a user of a client computer to address the addressable computing element represented by the host.

Abstract: A system and method for accessing and using one or more networked services of a cloud computing infrastructure by a user of a client computer includes an identity-based access management system that is configured to receive a request for a session via an API to use a specific service of the one or more networked services. A credential store includes a credential library that receives and stores credentials for authorizing and enabling the session with the specific service of the one or more networked services. A target service is configured to authorize and enable the session based on the received credentials. A secrets management system is configured to authenticate the user and the client computer to access and use the specific service authorized by the target service, and to generate a lease to a credential that is transmitted to the client computer to authorize the session with the specific service.

Abstract: An exterior lamp for an aircraft may comprise a housing, a navigation light disposed within the housing, and a brake light disposed within the housing, wherein the brake light is configured to illuminate in response to a brake signal. The exterior lamp may include a controller disposed within the housing, and a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the controller, the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the controller, cause the controller to perform operations comprising receiving a brake signal and illuminating the brake light in response to a brake signal.
