Patent number: 11797556Abstract: Each of a plurality of servers includes a shared information storage region for storing information to be shared with other servers. The servers operate so as to match data of the shared information storage regions with each other. A first server manages a first local database. A second server generates query information for accessing the first local database, and stores the query information in the shared information storage region of the second server. The first server acquires the query information from the shared information storage region of the first server, and stores the result with respect to the query information in the shared information storage region of the first server. The second server acquires the result from the shared information storage region of the second server.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2019Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Hirofumi Inomata, Masafumi Kinoshita, Hiroaki Konoura

Patent number: 11539788Abstract: Software that implements processing executed through coordination between multiple hubs is efficiently developed. An information processing system comprises a plurality of AP execution devices that are information processing apparatuses provided in each of a plurality of hubs to execute AP software. Each of the AP execution devices stores common AP software that executes the same processing blocks in the same order. The AP software includes transfer processing blocks implementing processing to coordinate processing of the processing blocks executed by a first one of the AP execution devices in a first one of the hubs with a second one of the AP execution devices in a second one of the hubs. Once the processing reaches a first one of the transfer processing blocks during sequential execution of the processing blocks of the AP software, the first AP execution device transmits a coordination start message notifying of start of the coordination, to the second AP execution device.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2020Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Yu Nakata, Hiroaki Konoura, Masafumi Kinoshita
