  • Patent number: 8126997
    Abstract: Provided is a hot data management method based on hit counter, which prevents loads from being concentrated on a specific data server due to hot data by efficiently managing the hot data in the asymmetric storage system. Each of data servers of an asymmetric storage system checks hit counter for data stored in the corresponding data server to maintain hit counter information on the data in a latest state.

  • Publication number: 20110153606
    Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and a method which can be easily implemented with flexibility enabling distributing all metadata of trees and files in an asymmetric distributed file system. The apparatus includes: a metadata storage unit storing metadata corresponding to a part of partitions of a virtual metadata address space storing metadata for directories and/or files for each of the partitions; and a metadata storage management unit controlling the metadata so that the metadata are stored in the metadata storage unit and manages a master map including information on the part of the partitions. Since all directories and files can be distributed to a plurality of metadata servers without a limitation, it is possible to prevent a load from being concentrated on a predetermined metadata server. Metadata roles of the metadata servers are very simply readjusted and as a result, the load can be easily distributed in a partition level.

  • Publication number: 20100161585
    Abstract: Provided is a data processing method in an asymmetric cluster filesystem. Each data server pre-allocates a free data block and transmits relevant information to a metadata server. The metadata server allocates a free data block and generates metadata by using free data block information, which is received beforehand and managed, upon a user's request of data generation. Then, the data server records the data on the free data block indicated in the metadata. Accordingly, network cost and operation amount of a server decrease and the load can be fairly distributed.

  • Publication number: 20100162382
    Abstract: Provided is a TOE hardware which includes intrusion prevention system hardware for inspection and real-time interrupt against static/dynamic attacks over network as well as fast TCP/IP processing, and a packet processing method in the TOE hardware. When a network packet is received, it is segmented to extract a header and a payload. A pattern matching inspection is performed for the payload, and the payload passed the inspection is transferred to the host. For the header, a header inspection is performed and a TCP/IP processing is performed on the header passed the inspection. Processing on the payload is performed in parallel with processing on the header. Accordingly, the packet processing speed of the TOE hardware increases.
