  • Techniques for usage metering and control in data storage systems
    Patent number: 9971544
    Abstract: A data storage system synchronously or asynchronously determines data storage usage policies in connection with incoming data storage requests so as to improve policy compliance and system efficiency. In some embodiments, a synchronous usage meter is used to make such policy decisions, and variously implement consistent hashing techniques to improve system availability and efficiency. In some embodiments, an asynchronous usage meter is used, and is implemented using an ordered queueing engine so as to improve the accuracy of policy decisions.
