Patent number: 11444641Abstract: A data storage system includes multiple head nodes and data storage sleds. The data storage sleds include multiple mass storage devices and a sled controller. Respective ones of the head nodes are configured to obtain credentials for accessing particular portions of the mass storage devices of the data storage sleds. A sled controller of a data storage sled determines whether a head node attempting to perform a write on a mass storage device of a data storage sled that includes the sled controller is presenting with the write request a valid credential for accessing the mass storage devices of the data storage sled. If the credentials are valid, the sled controller causes the write to be performed and if the credentials are invalid, the sled controller returns a message to the head node indicating that it has been fenced off from the mass storage device.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2019Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Norbert P.

Patent number: 11405324Abstract: A technique for packet processing may include maintaining a data structure representing transport status information associated with a sliding window of sequential packets for a host system. When a packet targeted for the host system is received, a packet validation process can be performed on the packet. The packet validation process may include validating that the packet belongs to the sliding window of the sequential packets by comparing the packet serial number of the packet against the packets being expected in the sliding window. The packet validation process may also include validating that the packet is being received for the first time and is not a duplicate packet. Upon validating the packet, the packet can be placed into the host system, and the status information can be updated to indicate that the packet has been received.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2019Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Avigdor Segal, Leah Shalev, Nofar Mann, Erez Izenberg, Noam Katz
