  • Patent number: 11245416
    Abstract: Massively parallel, block-based encoding and decoding technology that includes an encoded block format uses a plurality of processing cores to perform block-based encoding and decoding operations. The encoded block format includes a header and a payload. The encoded block format's headers represent unique single-Byte and multi-Byte event parameters that occur in the original data block from which each encoded block was generated. The encoded block format's payloads represent a sequence of single-Byte and multi-Byte events using tokens that associate each event with its corresponding parameter(s). Metadata can include an array of encoded block sizes that support random access.

  • Publication number: 20210281276
    Abstract: Encoded (compressed) data in an encoded block format output by a data encoder, having an input including digital input elements from an input stream or file that are divided into blocks that contain Nb individual data elements per block. The encoded block format can include an index that, during decoding, supports random access. A decoder can losslessly decode the encoded block format. Each encoded block contains a header and a payload. The header specifies the unique characteristics of elements used by the payload to describe single-Byte or multi-Byte events that occurred in the input block. The encoded block format is generated by one or more block-oriented encoders (compressors). Blocks having the encoded block format may be consumed by one or more decoders (decompressors) that regenerate Nb elements from each decoded (uncompressed) block.

  • Patent number: 11064055
    Abstract: A block-oriented lossless decompressor is used to decode encoded data fetched from storage that is subsequently transferred across a network in encoded (compressed) form. In examples described herein, applications executing at network nodes send GET requests, or similar messages, to storage systems, which can return compressed data this is decompressed in an intermediate node (between the storage node and the app), and can return compressed data that is decoded in the same network node in which the requesting application is running.

  • Patent number: 10972125
    Abstract: A combination of a block-oriented encoder and decoder with a modified dataset identifier that is associated with an encoded block size are used to perform block-based encoding and decoding operations. The encoding process may generate optional metadata that includes an array of encoded block sizes to support random access into the stream or group of encoded blocks during the decoding process. The modified dataset identifier associates the original dataset identifier with the block size used by the encoder.
