The processing unit sends, via the network interface, the I/O data request on a channel within the selected subset of one or more channels to access the I/O cache through the network. Associated methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: Holographic storage hardware enabled locking includes directing a first reference beam associated with a first process at a storage location in a holographic data storage medium, and detecting, with a detector while the first reference beam is directed at the storage location, whether a second reference beam associated with a second process is also directed at the storage location. Based on the detecting, a signal is generated indicating whether the storage location is locked.

Abstract: A method for compressing binary data into a human-readable format is provided. The method includes calculating a digital checksum for a binary object using a predetermined checksum algorithm, modifying the binary object in response to the checksum failing to satisfy a predetermined checksum condition, and performing human-readable prime number compression HRPNC) on the modified binary object using a specific table that associates prime numbers with words. The method also includes encoding the value used to modify the binary object with the compressed modified binary object. This approach reduce instability of data transfers to computing systems in locations that subject the computing systems to slow and unstable data transfers.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for sustainable data storage is provided. A sustainable storage program receives raw data comprising data access statistics and power consumption of data currently in storage tiers. The received data is tagged by a usage model based on data context. The tagged data is vectorized, whereby the vectorizing includes clustering data types, and identifying a storage tier for each data type. The vectorized and tagged data is stored in a vector database. Incoming data is assigned to a storage tier based on a similarity search of the vector database, whereby the similarity measures the proximity or distance of two vectors in the vector database. The usage model and the vector database are continuously updated and monitored.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product are provided for operating a primary and a backup RAID storage array. A disk drive configuration is loaded into a disk controller in a primary RAID array and a disk controller in a backup RAID array. The disk drive configuration includes a schedule for a sequence of selectively power cycling the disk drives, which is executed by the disk controller in the primary and in the backup RAID arrays. Upon detecting a disk failure, each disk controller executes a recovery procedure according to instructions included in the disk drive configuration. Recovery procedure includes suspending power cycling all disk drives and powering on all intentionally powered off disk drives. Data is copied from the corresponding backup RAID array disk drive to primary RAID array to rebuild the failed drive. The RAID configuration remains in this state until failed disk drive is repaired.
