  • Patent number: 11941448
    Abstract: A computing device includes a processor and a machine-readable storage storing instructions. The instructions are executable by the processor to: determine a completed amount of data transferred for each of a plurality of data transfer jobs, each of the plurality of data transfer jobs to transfer data to a storage system; determine an estimated probability of failure for each of the plurality of data transfer jobs; and allocate computing resources of the storage system to the plurality of data transfer jobs based on the completed amount of data transferred and the estimated probability of failure of each of the plurality of data transfer jobs.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 3, 2020
    Date of Patent: March 26, 2024
    Assignee: Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP
    Inventors: Dave Donaghy, Shiraz Billimoria
  • Patent number: 11609849
    Abstract: Examples may include a deduplication system threshold based on an amount of wear of a storage device. Examples may obtain an indication of an amount of wear experienced by at least one storage device storing a plurality of container indexes of a deduplication system, and may adjust a threshold of the deduplication system based on the amount of wear.

  • Patent number: 10769102
    Abstract: According to an example, to allocate disk storage space, a request to store a new data chunk in a container is received. For a list of available containers, an exposure count for the container is fetched in the event that a container comprises a data chunk from a same source as the new data chunk. An optimal container to store the new data chunk is determined, and in the event that an exposure count of the optimal container is less than an exposure count limit, the new data chunk in the optimal container is stored.

  • Publication number: 20180225179
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to data encryption instructions to divide a data element into a plurality of data chunks, encrypt the plurality of data chunks, store the encrypted plurality of data chunks in a local storage, and provide the data element to a remote backup storage.
