  • Patent number: 11809449
    Abstract: Embodiments for granular replication of data with high efficiency. A defined metadata element embodied as a tag is assigned to each file. Tag filtering is used to direct the data to the proper location. Files with different tags can be selected for transfer. Embodiments can be used with a defined backup system file replication process, such as present in the Data Domain File System. By using snapshots, incoming new data is continued to be ingested while the replication is in process and maintaining data consistency at the same time. This is achieved by performing operations on B+ Tree snapshots in conjunction with tag filtering on keys present in the leaf pages of these structures. This method efficiently makes a single pass walk of a B+ Tree in contrast with previous methods that look up files one-by-one via their pathname.

  • Patent number: 11748203
    Abstract: A new snapshot of a storage volume is created by instructing computing nodes to suppress write requests. Once pending write requests from the computing nodes are completed, storage nodes create a new snapshot for the storage volume by allocating a new segment to the new snapshot and finalizes and performs garbage collection with respect to segments allocated to the previous snapshot. Subsequent write requests to the storage volume are then performed on the segments allocated to the new snapshot. An orchestration layer implements a multi-role application that is provisioned with virtualized storage and computation resources. A snapshot of the application may be created and used to rollback or clone the application. Clone snapshots of storage volumes may be gradually populated with data from prior snapshots to reduce loading on a primary snapshot.

  • Patent number: 11650868
    Abstract: The current document is directed to methods and systems that sample log/event messages for downstream processing by log/event-message systems incorporated within distributed computer facilities. The data-collection, data-storage, and data-querying functionalities of log/event-message systems provide a basis for distributed log-analytics systems which, in turn, provide a basis for automated and semi-automated system-administration-and-management systems. By sampling log/event-messages, rather than processing and storing every log/event-message generated within a distributed computer system, a log/event-message system significantly decreases data-storage-capacity, computational-bandwidth, and networking-bandwidth overheads involved in processing and retaining large numbers of log/event messages that do not provide sufficient useful information to justify these costs.

Similarly, in some instances, a user may specify a data processing pipeline to be applied to a data stream, but specify criteria including data items outside the data stream. For example, a user may wish to apply the pipeline retroactively, to data items that have already exited the data stream. The system can convert the pipeline into a query against indexed data to satisfy the users processing requirements.
