Patent number: 11973650Abstract: Deployment of arrangements of computing components coupled over a communication fabric are presented herein. In one example, a method includes detecting first computing components communicatively coupled to a first communication fabric having a first communication fabric type, and detecting second computing components communicatively coupled to a second communication fabric having a second communication fabric type. The method also includes receiving user commands to form compute units among a pool of computing components comprising the first computing components and the second computing components. Based at least on the user commands, the method includes forming the compute units for use by one or more users.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2020Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Liqid Inc.Inventors: James Scott Cannata, Phillip Clark, Bryan Nagel, Henry Lee Harris, Bryan Schramm, Sumit Puri

Patent number: 11949559Abstract: Deployment of arrangements of computing components coupled over communication fabrics are presented herein. In one example, a method includes forming a compute unit to include at least a selected disaggregated computing component and at least a selected converged computing element. The selected disaggregated computing component is added to the compute unit from a pool of disaggregated computing components having a granularity comprising the disaggregated computing components arbitrarily and separately coupled to a communication fabric. The selected converged computing element is added to the compute unit from a pool of converged computing elements having a granularity comprising sets of computing components with fixed relationships to associated processors.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2022Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Liqid Inc.Inventors: James Scott Cannata, Phillip Clark, Bryan Nagel, Henry Lee Harris, Bryan Schramm, Sumit Puri

Publication number: 20220147479Abstract: Machine templates are described herein that provide for configuration and deployment of arrangements of physical computing components coupled over a communication fabric. A method includes presenting a user interface having indications of computing component types includable in a new template specifying at least an arrangement of physical computing components for inclusion in compute units. The method includes receiving selections made by a user for inclusion of selected physical computing component types within the new template, and determining properties of the selections to generalize an arrangement of the selected physical computing component types into a specification for the new template. The method includes storing the specification of the new template for subsequent usage in creation of a target compute unit based at least on the arrangement indicated by the new template.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2022Publication date: May 12, 2022Applicant: Liqid Inc.Inventors: James Scott Cannata, Phillip Clark, Sumit Puri, Bryan Schramm, Bryan Nagel

Patent number: 11265219Abstract: Deployment of arrangements of physical computing components coupled over a communication fabric are presented herein. In one example, a method includes detecting disaggregated computing components communicatively coupled to at least a first communication fabric, and detecting converged computing components communicatively coupled to a second communication fabric. The method includes forming a free pool of computing components comprising the disaggregated computing components and the converged computing components, and receiving user commands to form compute units from among computing components included in the free pool of computing components. Based at least on the user commands, the method includes forming the compute units for use by one or more users.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2020Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: Liqid Inc.Inventors: James Scott Cannata, Phillip Clark, Bryan Nagel, Henry Lee Harris, Bryan Schramm, Sumit Puri

Patent number: 11256649Abstract: Machine templates are described herein that provide for enhanced configuration and deployment of arrangements of physical computing components coupled over a communication fabric. In one example, a method includes presenting a user interface indicating a plurality of templates each specifying at least a predefined arrangement of physical computing components for inclusion in compute units, and receiving a user selection indicating a selected template among the plurality of templates to form a target compute unit. The method includes allocating to the target compute unit a set of physical computing components according to the selected template, and instructing a management entity to establish the target compute unit based at least on logical partitioning within a communication fabric communicatively coupling the set of physical computing components of the target compute unit.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2020Date of Patent: February 22, 2022Assignee: Liqid Inc.Inventors: James Scott Cannata, Phillip Clark, Sumit Puri, Bryan Schramm, Bryan Nagel
