Patent number: 8606760Abstract: A computer-implemented system configured to describe the relationship between a first Namespace and a second Namespace is provided. The system includes a containment relationship identifying a direct relationship between a first object of the first Namespace and a second object of the first Namespace. Moreover, the system includes a junction relationship linking the second object of the first Namespace to a first object of the second Namespace. In one embodiment, the system is configured to facilitate the recovery of information based on the descriptions of the Namespaces that is maintained.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2011Date of Patent: December 10, 2013Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Brian M. Wahlert, Mike Jazayeri, Catharine van Ingen, Brian T. Berkowitz, Nikhil Vijay Chandhok, Dharshan Rangegowda, Vinay Badami, Yezdi Z. Lashkari, Robert M. Fries, Seetharaman Harikrishnan

Patent number: 7865470Abstract: A method for creating a group plan for protecting an object located at a production location is provided. A selection of an object for which a group plan is to be created is received along with protection intents for the selected object. The protection intents are translated into a group plan for protecting the selected object.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2004Date of Patent: January 4, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Robert M Fries, Brian M Wahlert, Brian T Berkowitz, Catharine van Ingen, David E Gonzalez, Giedrius Zizys, Nikhil Vijay Chandhok, Venkatasubrahmanyam Raman, Yezdi Z Lashkari, Karandeep Singh Anand, Seetharaman Harikrishnan, Sunil Pai, Vinay Badami, Purushottam M Kulkarni

Patent number: 7631194Abstract: A method for detecting changes to a production location is provided. The method includes receiving a selection of a portion of the production location that is to be protected and identifying a larger portion of the production location that contains the selected portion of the production location. Upon identifying the larger portion, a routine is created for evaluating the identified larger portion of the production location for changes. That routine is performed in order to detect changes to the production location.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2004Date of Patent: December 8, 2009Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Brian M Wahlert, Brian T Berkowitz, Catharine van Ingen, Dharshan Rangegowda, Mike Jazayeri

Patent number: 7567974Abstract: A method for protecting protectable objects located at a production location is provided. A Namespace, representative of a plurality of protectable objects, is provided to a user for selection. A selection of at least a portion of the Namespace is received and that selected portion is mapped to at least one protectable object. A plan for protecting the mapped protectable object is created, and using that plan the protectable object is protected.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2004Date of Patent: July 28, 2009Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Brian M Wahlert, Mike Jazayeri, Catharine van Ingen, Brian T Berkowitz, Nikhil Vijay Chandhok, Dharshan Rangegowda, Seetharaman Harikrishnan, Vinay Badami, Yezdi Z Lashkari, Robert M Fries

Publication number: 20070271560Abstract: To determine whether to deploy a candidate VM to a candidate host, taking into consideration resources available from the candidate host and resources required by the candidate VM, a sub-rating is calculated for each of several resources available from the candidate host, where the sub-rating for the resource corresponds to an amount of the resource that is free after the candidate VM is deployed to the candidate host. Thereafter, a rating is calculated from the calculated sub-ratings to characterize how well the candidate host can accommodate the candidate VM. The rating for the candidate host are presented to a selector that determines whether to deploy the candidate VM to the candidate host based on the rating thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 18, 2006Publication date: November 22, 2007Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Brian M.
