  • Patent number: 9792290
    Abstract: Object store management operations within compute-centric object stores are provided herein. An exemplary method may include transforming an object storage dump into an object store table by a table generator container, wherein the object storage dump includes at least objects within an object store that are marked for deletion, transmitting records for objects from the object store table to reducer containers, such that each reducer container receives object records for at least one object, the object records comprising all object records for the at least one object, generating a set of cleanup tasks by the reducer containers, and executing the cleanup tasks by a cleanup agents.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9006061
    Abstract: A method of forming a capacitor comprises forming a first electrode of the capacitor over a substrate. The first electrode includes a bottom conductive plane and a plurality of first vertical conductive structures on the bottom conductive plane. The method also comprises forming an insulating structure over the first electrode. The method further comprises forming a second electrode of the capacitor over the insulating structure. The second electrode includes a top conductive plane and a plurality of second vertical conductive structures under the top conductive plane. The first vertical conductive structures of the plurality of first vertical conductive structures and the second vertical conductive structures of the plurality of second vertical conductive structures are interlaced with each other.
