  • Publication number: 20180300350
    Abstract: Embodiments provide a method to collect aggregate information or usage data quickly and efficiently with minimal lag. Additionally, the system can use this aggregate information internally for improved load balancing, better data placement, optimization, and enhanced debugging. The system can quickly look at aggregate information across a huge amount of data and drill down cheaply because the aggregate information is generated using existing processes. Aggregated statistics storage and collection may be built on top of an LSM tree used to store a persistent index for a cloud storage system. The statistics may also represent the result of an operation (e.g., max, min, sum, average) on selected parameter(s) or attribute(s) of stored data. Aggregate statistics values may be efficiently maintained during index merge and garbage collection processes or any other index management. As delta LSM trees are merged into a base LSM tree, the aggregates are updated in delta fashion.

  • Publication number: 20180259138
    Abstract: A lighting device includes a polychromatic light source for emitting light in a plurality of colors, a light filter, and an optical element, wherein the light filter and the optical element are sequentially provided in an optical path of the polychromatic light source; a through hole is provided in the light filter, and the through hole has a size smaller than that of light spots of the polychromatic light source reaching the through hole; and the optical element is used for adjusting the light spots. Since the through hole has a size smaller than that of the light spots of the polychromatic light source reaching the through hole, the light filter can block stray light around the light spots such that more uniform portion of the light spots passes through the through hole, thereby improving the light-emitting effect of the lighting device.
