Abstract: Various disclosed embodiments are directed to deriving, via a language model, a summary of data by converting or encoding table data into one or more natural language sentences, which are then used as input to the language model for generating the summary. One or more embodiments are additionally or alternatively directed to deriving, via a language model, a response to a user question or command via a chat interface by providing the language model with the generated summary as input. In this way, for example, the language model can use the summary as a prompt or other target context for providing a response.

Abstract: A system includes a set of adapter interfaces, a router module, and a processor. Each adapter interface is assigned to a different level of security. The router module sends requests to the adapter interfaces, based on the security levels associated with the devices that submitted the requests. A first adapter interface establishes a first connection to the servers, providing access to a first zone. A second adapter interface establishes a second connection to the servers, providing access to a second zone. The first zone includes a set of resources assigned to the first level of security that is not included in the second zone. Each adapter interface further receives data and applies different levels of security to the data, based on the security levels associated with the devices that submitted the data.

Abstract: A file transfer system that includes a data source, a destination device, and a transfer server. The transfer server is configured to receive a file from the data source and determine a file size of the file. The transfer server is further configured to determine an available disk space for the destination device, to compare the available disk space to the file size of the file, and to determine that the available disk space is less than the file size of the file. In response to the determination, the transfer server is further configured to determine a file type for the file based on content within the file and to identify metadata linked with the determined file type. The transfer server is further configured to extract data from the file corresponding with the identified metadata and to send the data to the destination device.

Abstract: An example method includes receiving a stream that identifies I/O operations requested to be performed with respect to a data grouping, identifying, in the stream, random I/O requests and sequential I/O requests, queuing the sequential I/O requests in a priority/processing queue and processing the sequential I/O requests immediately without waiting for loading of any metadata, and processing a first one of the random I/O requests and a second one of the random I/O request. When the first and second random I/O requests each depend on the same range of metadata, the first and second random I/O requests are processed in the order received, and when the first and second random I/O requests each depend on different respective ranges of metadata, the first and second random I/O requests are processed at the same time.

Abstract: According to some embodiment, a backup storage system receives, by a first phase of a data deduplication pipeline, a request from a client for reading or writing a data segment associated with a data stream stored in or to a storage system. In response to the request, the system retrieves, by the first phase, load parameters associated with a second phase in the data deduplication pipeline. For each of the load parameters associated with the second phase, the system determines, by the first phase, whether the load parameter has exceeded a load threshold associated with the second phase. The system throttles, by the first phase, performance of a specific job in the data deduplication pipeline by the second phase in response to a determination that at least one of the load parameters associated with the second job phase has exceeded the load threshold associated with the second phase.

Abstract: A flow control information routing system includes a receiver node device coupled to a sender node device by intermediate node devices that receive data traffic directed downstream, transmit the data traffic downstream, and provide flow control information upstream that is based on the data traffic transmitted downstream. The sender node device may perform a first layer 3 routing decision to direct a traffic flow to the receiver node device along a first traffic flow path that includes first intermediate node device(s). The sender node device may then receive flow control information provided by the first intermediate node device(s) and, in response, perform a second layer 3 routing decision using the flow control information in order to direct the traffic flow to the receiver node device along a second traffic flow path that includes second intermediate node device(s) and that does not include the first intermediate node device(s).

Abstract: In one example, a method includes receiving a stream that identifies I/O operations requested to be performed with respect to a data grouping, and identifying, in the stream, random I/O requests and sequential I/O requests. Next, the stream is split into an incoming queue containing the sequential I/O requests and a priority/processing queue containing the random I/O requests. A metadata load queue is then defined by assigning each of the random I/O requests to a respective range of metadata. The metadata of each range is loaded, and the random I/O requests re-queued. Using the loaded metadata, a random I/O operation is performed that corresponds to one of the random I/O requests. Finally, the random I/O operation and a sequential I/O operation are performed concurrently with each other.

The metadata segment can be updated to include the fingerprint. Backup operations may include storage and management using a tree structure.

Abstract: A method, article of manufacture, and apparatus for backup operations. A read request is received for a data segment at a deduplicated storage system. The data segment is determined not to be in a data cache on the deduplicated storage system.
