Patents by Inventor Brant BOEHMANN

Brant BOEHMANN has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12019649
    Abstract: The cloud hybrid application storage management system spans local data center and cloud-based storage and provides a unified view of content and administration throughout an enterprise. The system manages synchronization of storage locations, ensuring that files are replicated, uniquely identified, and protected against corruption. The system ingests digital media assets and creates instances of the assets with their own identification and rights and houses the identification and relationships in a CAR (Central Asset Registry). The system tracks the different instances of the assets in multiple storage locations using the CAR, which is a central asset registry that ties together disparate digital asset management repository systems (DAMs) and cloud-based storage archives in which the instances reside. While the invention treats and manages multiple files/instances independently, the CAR identifies them as related to each other.

  • Publication number: 20240160701
    Abstract: A central asset registry and associated satellite registries tie Digital Asset Management (DAM) repositories and satellite repositories into a unified enterprise system. The system removes rights and asset relationship tracking from the DAMs and the satellites by gathering asset metadata tags and capturing digital asset rights and relationships between assets to improve speed, scalability, and flexibility in analyzing and traversing networks of rights and relationships of digital assets. The central asset registry and the satellite registries use a pluggable architecture and track and store multi-dimensional relationships as an asset hierarchy. The asset hierarchy and rights model depicts rights and relationship data between the assets and provides a flexible array of asset types and properties for addition of new assets, new asset types, and new rights without re-factoring the other data, nodes, and edges. The system uses asset metadata to create edge relationships between the assets.
