Abstract: Edge application deployment in a network is provided. The network includes a plurality of edge sites with edge computing infrastructure. Edge application deployment is performed, including deploying a pseudo application instance (pApp) of the edge application at each edge site of a first group of edge sites of the plurality of edge sites, and deploying a real application instance (rApp) of the edge application at each edge site of a second group of one or more edge sites of the plurality of edge sites. The pApp is a lightweight, application-specific instance of the rApp with less application functionality than the rApp. Further, the first group of edge sites is larger than the second group, and a user device interaction with the edge application is through a selected pApp of the first group of edge sites to an rApp of the second group.

Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The method computer program products, and systems can include, for instance: receiving by primary database system a query statement that references a first table, wherein the primary database system is associated to a first accelerator database system and a second accelerator database system, wherein modifications performed on tables of the primary database system are iteratively replicated into the first accelerator database system and the second accelerator database system; examining latency data that specifies a latency with which a modification to the first table has been replicated into the first accelerator database system and a latency with which a modification to the first table has been replicated into the second accelerator database system; selecting, in dependence on the examining, the first accelerator database system for execution of the query statement; routing the query statement to the first accelerator database system for execution in response to the selecting.

Abstract: Method and system for electrochemically compressing hydrogen. In one embodiment, the system includes a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) that includes a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM), an anode, and a cathode. First and second gas diffusion media are positioned adjacent the cathode and anode, respectively. A humidifying membrane is positioned next to the second gas diffusion medium on a side opposite the anode. A water supply is connected to the humidifying membrane, and a hydrogen gas supply is connected to the second gas diffusion medium. A hydrogen gas collector including a back pressure regulator is connected to the first gas diffusion medium. Separators, positioned on opposite sides of the MEA, are connected to a power source. In use, hydrogen is electrochemically pumped across the MEA and collected in the hydrogen gas collector. The PEM is kept properly humidified by the humidifying membrane, which releases water into the second gas diffusion medium.

Abstract: Pipelines in operation specifically the ones operating under high pressures are subject to structural deficiencies therefore, they are susceptible to leakage. The present disclosure relates to a pipeline-leak-containment apparatus comprising an elongate tubular containment wall and at least a first clamp and a second clamp sealingly engaging a section of a pipe to form a sealed interstitial space between the elongate tubular containment wall and the pipe. The tubular containment wall comprises an inner layer, a reinforcement layer and an outer layer. Each clamp comprises an inner clamp, and an outer clamp, wherein at least the inner layer at each end of the elongate tubular containment wall is sealingly sandwiched between the inner clamp and the outer clamp of each clamp. Inner and outer clamps are split clamps that sealingly engage the pipe upon tightening of fastening members.
