Publication number: 20240078157Abstract: In connection with a data distribution architecture, client-side “deduplication” techniques may be utilized for data transfers occurring among various file system nodes. In some examples, these deduplication techniques involve fingerprinting file system elements that are being shared and transferred, and dividing each file into separate units referred to as “blocks” or “chunks.” These separate units may be used for independently rebuilding a file from local and remote collections, storage locations, or sources. The deduplication techniques may be applied to data transfers to prevent unnecessary data transfers, and to reduce the amount of bandwidth, processing power, and memory used to synchronize and transfer data among the file system nodes. The described deduplication concepts may also be applied for purposes of efficient file replication, data transfers, and file system events occurring within and among networks and file system nodes.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Matthew Dornquast, Brian Bispala, Damon Allison, Brad Armstrong, Marshall Scorcio, Rory Lonergan, Peter John Lindquist, Christopher Parker

Publication number: 20160094649Abstract: Node-to-Node data distribution is described herein. A node may receive a set of peer nodes from a collection authority node that is managing a collection. The node and the set of peer nodes are members of the collection. The node may select a subset of peer nodes from the set of peer nodes. The node may attempt to establish communications with each of the subset of peer nodes, connected peers being those peers where the attempt was successful. The node may synchronize an event stream with each connected peer.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 31, 2014Publication date: March 31, 2016Inventors: Matthew Dornquast, Brian Bispala, Damon Allison, Rory Lonergan, Bret McGuire, Justin Grammens, Peter Lindquist
