  • Migration containers
    Patent number: 10673823
    Abstract: Various systems and methods for provisioning migration containers are disclosed. A system includes a memory and a processor to generate a migration container and migration metadata. The migration container can store data verified as encrypted with an encryption key and the migration metadata can include a lifespan value indicating a time limit for the migration container. In an example, the system can, in response to a request from a user device, provide the encryption key and a migration container path corresponding to a location of the migration container to the user device. In an example, the system can store data in the migration container in response to detecting the data from the user device via the migration container path. The system can migrate the data in the migration container to a server, and delete the migration container in response to the time limit of the lifespan value being exceeded.
