Publication number: 20250103490Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving a metadata page for storage within a log-structured metadata store. An entry may be generated within a translation table page of a translation table within the log-structured metadata store, wherein each entry of a plurality of entries within the translation table page is associated with a separate metadata page. One or more metadata page deltas for the metadata page may be recorded in the log-structured metadata store. The one or more metadata page deltas for the metadata page may be flushed to a persistent memory storage. In response to flushing the one or more metadata page deltas for the metadata page, the entry within the translation table page that is associated with the metadata page may be updated without accessing any other entry within the translation table page associated with other metadata pages.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: March 27, 2025Inventors: Christopher Seibel, Vamsi K. Vankamamidi, Christopher J. Jones, Vladimir Shveidel

Patent number: 11232614Abstract: A density gradient analysis tool can be employed in conjunction with heat mapping systems. A data distribution of data points can be generated. The data distribution can include bins that represent an interval of time and density corresponding to a number of data points in each bin. Further, the data distribution can aggregate data points in each bin. A heat map can be generated based on the data distribution that includes regions corresponding to bins and coloration associated with aggregate values. Further, the heat maps can be interactive including an ability to transition between time periods, expand an interval of time, and select a subset of data for further inspection.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2020Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A.Inventor: Christopher J.
