Abstract: Certain embodiments may relate to providing increased storage capacity. For instance, a memory storage device may include a motherboard with an external communication interface. The memory storage device may also include a multiple solid-state drives coupled to the motherboard in communication with the external communication interface. Each of the plurality of solid-state drives may include a respective storage controller to manage the distribution of data during a write or read operation to a combination of a primary storage allocation and a redundant storage allocation. The redundant storage allocation may be included in the combination in response to detecting an error condition associated with at least a portion of the primary storage allocation.

Abstract: Systems and apparatuses for predicting computer job performance rankings across different computer architectures, configurations, and clusters and methods for making and using the same. The method can include running a new job on a selected computer system and identifying one or more nearby jobs that are nearby the new job. A performance of each of the nearby jobs across the available computer systems can be ranked. The available computer systems preferably include the selected computer system. The method also can estimate a rank of the new job on each of the available computer systems. In various embodiments, these technologies advantageously can be used to optimize the matching of jobs to computer systems.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method may include establishing a set of distributed ledgers. Each distributed ledger (or blockchain) may include a unique root key that is specific to the client. A series of rules for data handling and/or manipulation may be produced, and the data is handled according to such rules. An entry may be added to the ledger for each transaction, and the ledger is distributed to those end point associated with the client. In the event of an invalid (or unauthorized) transaction, a “side branch” (or “fault branch”) may be added to the ledger, thus easily identifying the transaction as being invalid to the client.

Abstract: A method and apparatus may include determining a failure of a drive. The drive comprises a plurality of platters, each platter comprises two half-platters, and data of the drive is stored via erasure encoding. The method can also include rebuilding a portion of the drive upon which the failure occurred, wherein other portions of the drive are not rebuilt.
