  • Patent number: 9712609
    Abstract: An evaluation value DS for evaluating responsiveness of a first node when no loads are being transferred, an evaluation value Dn for evaluating responsiveness of a path P connecting between the first and second nodes assuming that loads are being transferred, and an evaluation value Dr for evaluating responsiveness of the second node N2 assuming that the second node has received a load from the first node are calculated. Whether or not to transfer the load is determined depending upon comparison results of magnitude of DS and a sum of Dr+Dn.

  • Patent number: 9609060
    Abstract: Provided a plurality of data nodes connected in a network, each including a data storage unit. The data node of data replication destination temporarily stores data to be updated in an intermediate data structure, and converts asynchronously with respect to the update request to a target data structure to store the converted data in the data storage unit. Based on access history information stored in an access history recording unit, trigger information, concerning timing for execution of conversion to the target data structure performed asynchronously by the data node is changed.

  • Patent number: 8635402
    Abstract: A system has a data structure in which a value can be obtained from a key. In a write access, a first pair <Key,Hash(Value)> and a second pair <Hash(Value),Value> are stored respectively in a volatile storage device. The first pair <Key,Hash(Value)> is saved in a nonvolatile storage device before returning a response, and the second pair <Hash(Value),Value> is saved in the first storage device at any time with the second pair saved in the volatile storage device. In a read access in which a value is obtained from a key, it is determined that data is not stored normally if the second pair is not found in processing in which after obtaining the hash value of the value from the first pair, the second pair is read.
