A system and method for sensing height above landing surface for an aircraft, processing that sensed height information to provide information useful to the aircraft pilot for assisting with the landing and flare-to-land maneuver, and providing the processed information in a peripheral vision display indicating landing conditions sequentially without interfering with pilot vision and focus on the landing area.

Embodiments of the present disclosure enable users of a data sharing system to build native applications that can be shared with other users of the data sharing system. The native applications can be published and discovered in the data sharing system like any other data listing, and consumers can install them in their local data sharing system account to serve their data processing needs. A provider may define an installation script for installing an application and create a share object to which the installation script may be attached. In response to an imported database being created in a consumer account based on the share object, a native application framework may automatically execute the installation script in the consumer account and may create a set of database roles to manage execution of the application in the consumer account.

The subject technology provides a portion of the functionality of an application on an electronic device on which the application is not installed. The portion of the functionality of the application is provided by a clip of the application that can be obtained, installed, and launched on the user device, at the time the functionality is desired by a user, and without authenticating information for the user. The clip of the application can provide the user with access to a purchase function, an ordering function, or any other sub-function of the application. When the application itself is installed on the device, the clip of the application can be deleted while preserving access, by the application, to data generated on the device by the clip.

Techniques discussed herein relate to providing composable edge devices. In some embodiments, a user request specifying a set of services to be executed at a cloud-computing edge device may be received by a computing device operated by a cloud computing provider. A manifest may be generated in accordance with the user request. The manifest may specify a configuration for the cloud-computing edge device. Another request can be received specifying the same or a different set of services to be executed at another edge device. Another manifest which specifies the configuration for that edge device may be generated and subsequently used to provision the request set of services on that device. In this manner, manifests can be used to compose the platform to be utilized at any given edge device.

Embodiments provide a web-based editing tool that intelligently leverages certain functionality of a browser, web client, desktop client, and native software at the client side to provide seamless user experience when editing a file over a network. Responsive to a user selecting a file for editing, the web client may send a passive content request to a web server embedded in the desktop client at a specific address on the client device. If no response, the web client prompts the user to start or install the desktop client on the client device. If a response is received, the web client sends a request to the desktop client with a user identifier and authorization to download the file from a server. The desktop client downloads the file, opens it in the native software, monitors the file being edited, and updates a delta associated with the file to the server.

An information handling system may include at least one processor, and a non-transitory memory coupled to the at least one processor. The information handling system may be configured to execute a configuration procedure to set up a plurality of information handling resources of the information handling system, and wherein the configuration procedure includes a plurality of logical groups related to different types of configuration. Each logical group may include one or more atomic groups, each atomic group including a plurality of logically related atomic operations. In response to a failure of a particular atomic operation of a particular atomic group, the information handling system may be configured to roll back the particular atomic operation and allow the configuration procedure to be restarted at a beginning of the particular atomic group.
