  • Publication number: 20180067933
    Abstract: A network storage system comprises data storage, one or more file system APIs, and a metadata handler. The data storage can comprise file data and associated metadata. The file system APIs can be configured to read and write file data and metadata to and from the data storage. The metadata handler can have a library of functions for handling the metadata. The library can include a metadata blob creation function and a metadata blob extraction function. The metadata blob creation function cooperates with the file system APIs to read source metadata associated with specified file data and creates and populates a metadata blob from which a substantial copy of the source metadata can be generated. The metadata blob extraction function receives at least a metadata blob, extracts information from the metadata blob, and cooperates with the file system APIs to generate destination metadata, a substantial copy of the source metadata.

  • Publication number: 20060259527
    Abstract: There is provided, in a computer processing system, an apparatus for managing object data. The apparatus includes a changed objects manager for creating and managing a changed objects list that at least identifies the objects that have changed based on time of change. The changed objects list is associated with a plurality of time buckets. Each of the plurality of time buckets is associated with a respective date and time period and with object change records for objects having a timestamp falling within the respective date and time period. Each of the object change records is associated with a unique object identifier and the timestamp for a corresponding one of the objects. The timestamp specifies a date and a time corresponding to a latest one of a creation time or a most recent update time for the corresponding one of the objects.

  • Publication number: 20060248219
    Abstract: A content-based publish/subscribe system for providing gapless message delivery from a publishing client to a subscribing client, the system includes a plurality of brokers operatively coupled to one another via a network. Each of the brokers include at least one processor and are configured as a publisher-hosting broker, a subscriber-hosting broker or an intermediate broker. The subscriber-hosting broker is operatively coupled to the publisher-hosting broker via the network through the intermediate broker. At least a portion of the plurality of brokers are configured so as to eliminate a need for persistent storage of messages at the intermediate broker and to substantially guarantee a gapless delivery of one or more messages transmitted by the publishing client to the subscribing client, even in the presence of a failure in the publish/subscribe system.

  • Publication number: 20060112389
    Abstract: A policy for a computer system is transformed into a plurality of sub-policies, at least one synchronization step, and a final action. The sub-policies are distributed to corresponding sub-components in the computer system. The sub-policies are evaluated, wherein each sub-component evaluates its corresponding one or more sub-policies as other sub-components evaluate their corresponding one or more sub-policies. The sub-policies are synchronized by using the at least one synchronization step. The final action is performed in response to synchronizing the sub-policies. The computer system can be singular or distributed.
