  • Patent number: 11544114
    Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, workload management devices, and network traffic management systems that optimize systems with idempotent workloads are illustrated. With this technology, an identification is made when a status indicates a jobs is deferred. A determination is then made when the job is preempted based on a type of the job, when the identification indicates the job is deferred and the type and an identifier of the job matches another job. Another status is adjusted to indicate the other job is deferred. The status is then modified to indicate that the job is preempted, or the job is removed, when the determination indicates the job is preempted. Accordingly, jobs are selectively preempted, such as based on idempotency of the associated workload, to achieve intended consistent states for objects faster, with increased reliability, and with reduced overhead.

The device transmits, to the other device and based at least in part on the CSI packet period, a CSI packet over the link. Accordingly, when the conditions change, the CSI packet period can be adapted to the changes, thereby improving the CSI transmissions over the link given the most current conditions.
