  • Maintaining container to storage volume relations
    Patent number: 10698622
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes receiving, at a storage system, a request to allocate persistent data storage for use by a container within an orchestration system, where the request includes an orchestration system identifier, selecting a storage volume within the storage system for use by the container within the orchestration system, determining a storage identifier for the storage volume within the storage system, and storing, within the storage system, an association between the orchestration system identifier and the storage identifier.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 22, 2018
    Date of Patent: June 30, 2020
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Amalia Avraham, Alon Marx, Isaac Beckman, Lior Tamary
  • Container replication and failover orchestration in distributed computing environments
    Patent number: 10691568
    Abstract: Embodiments for managing volume replication and disaster recovery in a containerized storage environment. A mapping is established between a PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC) having a correlated Persistent Volume (PV), and a source storage World Wide Name (WWN) and a target storage WWN. The mapping is replicated as part of a replication operation between the source storage and the target storage thereby maintaining consistency of the PV associated with one or more application containers among the source storage and the target storage.

  • CONTAINER REPLICATION AND FAILOVER ORCHESTRATION IN DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING ENVIROMENTS
    Publication number: 20200034258
    Abstract: Embodiments for managing volume replication and disaster recovery in a containerized storage environment. A mapping is established between a PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC) having a correlated Persistent Volume (PV), and a source storage World Wide Name (WWN) and a target storage WWN. The mapping is replicated as part of a replication operation between the source storage and the target storage thereby maintaining consistency of the PV associated with one or more application containers among the source storage and the target storage.

  • Spreading quality of service values over a given range with minimal deviation
    Patent number: 10320707
    Abstract: Embodiments for performance management in a computing storage environment. In a storage system having a predetermined number of available quality of service (QoS) values associated with a performance of the storage system, the predetermined number of available QoS values are spread over a range such that a user requested QoS value is matched with one of the available QoS values within an optimal deviation value to a given precision.

  • Adaptive storage-aware multipath management
    Patent number: 10079729
    Abstract: Various embodiments for multipath management in a storage grid, by a processor device, are provided. In one embodiment, a method comprises continuously monitoring and comparing current data path devices against the current storage structure, and changing routing decision configurations when it is detected there is a more efficient data path.
