  • Patent number: 12699608
    Abstract: Instead of incurring interface errors caused by power drops, continuously track all the channels between the controller and the storage device (both in-band and side-band channels). The tracking will include extracting relevant indications and use a prediction model that correlates between the tracked indications to later occurrence of power drop events. In response to the prediction results, the system may perform different rehabilitation operations (countermeasures). The controller will monitor different indications from the storage element and power supply to predict a signal integrity degradation marginality event on the interface. The monitoring and mitigation strategy relies on an open-ended system. The controller does not employ a real-time continuous return channel from the storage device that may signal pass/fail conditions.

  • Patent number: 12693923
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for identifying anomalies of failure events on a cloud computing system and determining cross-component and cross-layer correlation between change events that occur on the cloud computing system and the failure events associated with the anomalies. In particular, this disclosure describes a system that receives telemetry related to change events and failure events across any number of computing layers of a distributed computing environment (e.g., a cloud computing system) and detects anomalies based on counts of failure events that are manifested over discrete periods of time. Based on these detected anomalies, the anomaly correlation system can determine cross-layer and cross-component correlations between selective change events and the detected anomalies of failure events.

  • Patent number: 12693924
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for persistent health monitoring for volatile memory devices are described. A memory device may determine that an operating condition associated with an array of memory cells on the device, such as a temperature, current, voltage, or other metric of health status is outside of a range associated with a risk of device degradation. The memory device may monitor a duration over which the operating condition is outside of the range, and may determine whether the duration satisfies a threshold. In some cases, the memory device may store an indication of when (e.g., each time) the duration satisfied the threshold. The memory device may store the one or more indications in one or more non-volatile storage elements, such as fuses, which may enable the memory device to maintain a persistent indication of a cumulative duration over which the memory device is operated with operating conditions outside of the range.

  • Patent number: 12688080
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for implementing system object tracking for rule violation detection. In various examples, in response to a trigger event, a computing system may track a system object by tracking a tracker object corresponding to a memory address range of a database that has been allocated to the system object. Contemporaneous with the trigger event, the computing system determines, based on tracking of the tracker object, whether a system rule associated with the system object has been violated. Based on a determination that a system rule associated with the system object has been violated, the computing system triggers at least one action associated with the system object, including performing a contemporaneous error check, sending messages indicating an error caused by violation of the system rule, identifying a system component or driver that caused the error, and/or causing an immediate system crash.

  • Patent number: 12657088
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for persistent memory file system reconciliation. As part of the persistent memory file system reconciliation, high level file system metadata associated with a persistent memory file system of persistent memory is reconciled. Client access to the persistent memory file system is inaccessible until reconciliation of the high level file system metadata has completed. A first scanner is executed to traverse pages of the persistent memory in order to fix local inconsistencies associated with the pages. A local inconsistency of a first set of metadata or data of a page is fixed using a second set of metadata or data of the page. The first scanner is executed asynchronously in parallel with processing client I/O directed to the persistent memory file system.

  • Patent number: 12657098
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing logging and telemetry data in a cloud provider network including block storage volumes (“disks”) and virtual machine instances by scanning data written to the block storage volumes by the virtual machine instances. The disk recycler system can receive configuration information to scan for, obtain, and upload data to logging and telemetry services hosted by the cloud provider network. For example, in the scenario of a virtual machine instance failure, the disk recycler system may upload leftover data from the block storage volume to the relevant logging and telemetry services to avoid gaps in data required by the services of the cloud provider network.

  • Patent number: 12639180
    Abstract: A multi-power-domain emulated persistent memory resource system includes a memory interface/data mover subsystem coupled to a second memory subsystem in a second power domain, and a microvisor subsystem coupled to the memory interface/data mover subsystem and a first memory subsystem in a first power domain that is different than the second power domain. The microvisor subsystem presents an emulated persistent memory resource to a client device using the first memory subsystem, and monitors metadata for the first memory subsystem to identify modification(s) of data in the first memory subsystem. In response, the microvisor subsystem uses the memory interface/data mover subsystem to copy the data from the first memory subsystem to the second memory subsystem. Following unavailability of the first power domain and corresponding loss of the data on the first memory subsystem, the memory interface/data mover subsystem copies the data from the second memory subsystem to the first memory subsystem.

  • Patent number: 12579018
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing intelligent alert automation (“IAA”). In various embodiments, IAA receives alert/event feeds from several different alerting and ticketing systems via input Redis queues, and uses a triage system to determine whether to process the alert/event or disregard it. If so, IAA may create a flow instance, assign a unique instance ID, and place the flow instance in one of a plurality of jobs queues based on alert/event type and/or or source. An abattoir system retrieves a flow instance from one of the jobs queues (in order of the queue's priority), and processes the next node or step in the flow instance. The flow instance is placed back into the jobs queue for subsequent processing by the same or different abattoir system until no additional nodes or steps remain in the flow, at which point the flow instance is considered complete.
