  • Patent number: 11995055
    Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to a method for distributed data management. The method may include making a first determination that data is written to a data structure of storage of a data host; obtaining, based on the first determination, data information associated with the data; making a second determination of intent corresponding to the data; generating a global name and metadata corresponding to the data, wherein the metadata comprises the intent; and publishing the global name and the metadata to a global name repository.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: May 28, 2024
    Assignee: EMC IP HOLDING COMPANY LLC
    Inventors: William Jeffery White, John S. Harwood, Said Tabet, Robert Anthony Lincourt, Jr.
  • Patent number: 11994975
    Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to a method for managing a distributed multi-tiered computing (DMC) environment. The method includes obtaining, by a local controller associated with a DMC domain, a set of correlated services associated with an anomaly; obtaining a service dependency graph associated with the set of correlated services; generating a causal variance for each service using the correlated services and the service dependency graph; generating a weighted rank order of causal services based on the causal variance associated with each service, and the weighted rank order of causal services includes a portion of the services associated with an application associated with the anomaly; and performing remediation based on the weighted rank order of the causal services.

  • Patent number: 11953978
    Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to a method for managing a distributed multi-tiered computing (DMC) environment. The method includes obtaining, by a local controller associated with a DMC domain, a weighted rank order of causal services associated with a service impairment; obtaining contextual information associated with the weighted rank order of causal services; identifying top causal services based on the weighted rank order of causal services; generating, using a causal symbolic engine, a ranked order of top root causes based on the top causal services and the contextual information; selecting remediation profiles associated with the top root causes; executing remediation profiles in ranked order of the top root causes; making a determination that the remediation profiles were successful; and in response to the determination: logging the service impairment and notifying a user associated with the service impairment.

  • Patent number: 9083683
    Abstract: The encryption/decryption device includes a plaintext unit, a ciphertext unit and a cryptographic unit connected therebetween. The plaintext unit may include a logic device such as a first programmable logic device (PLD), e.g. a field programmable gate array (FPGA), for interfacing with the protected network to perform encapsulation of data from the protected network to define outgoing datagrams, and to perform decapsulation of incoming datagrams from the cytographic unit. The ciphertext unit may include a second logic device such as a PLD or FPGA for interfacing with the unprotected network to perform routing of incoming encrypted datagrams from the unprotected network to the cryptographic unit, and to perform routing of outgoing encrypted datagrams from the cryptographic unit to the unprotected network.
