  • Tiered storage for data processing
    Patent number: 10650017
    Abstract: Tiered storage may be implemented for processing data. Data processors may maintain some of a data set, including user data and metadata describing the user data, locally. The data set is also maintained a data store remote to the data processor. When processing requests are received, a determination is made as to whether the local portions of the data set can execute the processing request or one or more additional portions of the data set are needed from the remote data store. If additional portions of the data set are needed, then a request may be sent to the data store for the additional portions. Once received, the data processor may execute the processing request utilizing the additional portions. Portions of the data set maintained locally at the data processor may be selected and flushed from local storage to the remote data store.

  • Cross-environment application of tracing information for improved code execution
    Patent number: 10649749
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for enabling cross-environment application of tracing information for code, such as code executed within an on-demand (or “serverless”) code execution system. Various optimizations exist that allow execution of code to proceed faster or more efficiently over time, by collecting tracing information regarding the execution and using that tracing information to guide compilation of the code. These optimizations are typically designed for long-lived environments. However, executions within an on-demand code execution system often occur in short-lived environments, reducing or eliminating any gains from these optimizations. To address this issue, tracing information can be maintained across multiple environments on the system, allowing subsequent executions to be optimized based on tracing information of prior executions in other environments.

  • NAT entry management method and NAT device
    Patent number: 10652205
    Abstract: A NAT entry management method and a NAT device are disclosed. The method includes: receiving and storing, by a NAT device, a connection parameter, where the connection parameter includes an address of a controller; receiving a packet sent by a network device, where a source address of the packet is a private address of the network device and a destination address of the packet is the address of the controller; performing NAT on the packet, where an after-NAT source address of the packet is a public address; and when a static entry condition is met, generating a target static NAT entry, where the static entry condition includes that the destination address of the packet is the address of the controller. This can prevent aging of the NAT entry from affecting communication between the network device and the controller.

  • Indirect data return from memory controller logic
    Patent number: 10649925
    Abstract: A portion of the memory space, supported by memory chips that are being controlled by a memory controller logic, can be set aside and read requests directed to memory addresses within that portion can be redirected, by the memory controller logic, to other memory addresses at which is stored the data equivalent to the internal data of the memory controller logic that the memory controller logic seeks to return, thereby enabling the memory controller logic to indirectly return data to processes executing on the host computing device. Additionally, requests to write data to specific memory addresses, including memory addresses that can be within the set aside portion, can be interpreted, by the memory controller logic, as commands that the memory controller logic is to perform, and which impact its own internal data including commands to reset values, or start or end data collection, or other like commands.
