  • Patent number: 11960458
    Abstract: A technique for performing data deduplication operates at sub-block granularity by searching a deduplication database for a match between a candidate sub-block of a candidate block and a target sub-block of a previously-stored target block. When a match is found, the technique identifies a duplicate range shared between the candidate block and the target block and effects persistent storage of the duplicate range by configuring mapping metadata of the candidate block so that it points to the duplicate range in the target block.

  • Patent number: 11934383
    Abstract: The disclosure discloses a mimetic database-based network operating system design method, including: designing a mimetic data structure; designing a mimetic data object; designing a synchronization mechanism and a decision mechanism, designing a mimetic database safe storage command processing system, and designing a classification storage mechanism for interacting data between service modules and a master database in a network operating system. By means of vertical hierarchy and horizontal classification, the problem of compatibility of the database subjected to mimetic transformation and a network operating system is solved. By means of a memory random distribution storage mechanism and a memory hardware heterogeneous storage mechanism, the cost caused by mimetic transformation can be reduced, and the cost is controllable while the safety is improved.

  • Patent number: 11886524
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for limiting provision and display of redundant digital components on a client. Methods can include storing, by a client device, a list of digital components specifying digital components available for provision to the client device. For a first digital component received within a first application, the client device detects a set of signals specifying a first user interaction with the first digital component and a second user interaction with content provided in response to the first user interaction. Based on whether an affirmative user action was performed, the client device can modify the list of digital components. When a request to access a content page within a second application is received, the client device can receive the second digital component, which can be selected from among digital components included on the modified list of digital components.

  • Patent number: 11874841
    Abstract: A method includes determining a first set of query rules and receiving a query from a requesting entity. The first set of query rules is filtered to generate a proper subset of the first set of query rules by selecting only ones of the first set of query rules with parameter data comparing favorably to parameters of the query. Compliance data indicating whether the query complies with the first set of query rules is generated by determining whether the query complies with the proper subset of the first set of query rules. When the compliance data indicates the query complies with the first set of query rules, a query result is determined for the query and the query result is transmitted to the requesting entity. When the compliance data indicates the query does not comply with the first set of query rules, transmission of the query is foregone.
