  • Updating object attributes in a lock-coupled namespace traversal
    Patent number: 9798765
    Abstract: A deferred mechanism of rolling attribute changes to objects at transaction commit time is described. To support rolling updates, attributes are categorized into three types—increment, decrement or replace. Since transactions are committed in order, the update process uses a notification list of dependent transactions to propagate attribute changes as a function of attribute category or type. Shadow based file-systems (with or without object versioning) realize efficiency gains by employing the deferred mechanism.
    Type: Grant

  • Switching system
    Patent number: 6985956
    Abstract: Methods and systems consistent with certain aspects related to the present invention provide a digital network having a plurality of data storage elements, at least one client, and a switch element. The switch element may be operable to receive access requests from the client and provide access to data on the storage elements in response to one or more access requests.
