  • Patent number: 11294728
    Abstract: A method for managing data includes selecting a first workload, wherein the first workload is implemented on at least a resource device, obtaining a snapshot of performance metrics for the resource device, storing the snapshot of performance metrics in a performance database, making a first determination that a minimum number of previous snapshots have been obtained after a previous performance analysis, and in response to the first determination: performing a performance analysis on a set of previous snapshots of the first workload to obtain a performance report, making a second determination, based on the performance report, that the resource device does not meet standard performance, and in response to the second determination, performing a resource device remediation on the resource device.

  • Patent number: 11372730
    Abstract: A method for managing data includes identifying, by a compute acceleration device (CAD), a first chunk to be health-checked using storage metadata, generating a first chunk identifier using the first chunk, making a determination that the first chunk identifier does not match a second chunk identifier stored in the storage metadata, and in response to the determination: obtaining a plurality of chunks associated with the first chunk, regenerating the first chunk using the plurality of chunks to generate a new first chunk, storing the new first chunk in a data node, wherein the CAD is executing in the data node, updating the storage metadata based on storage of the new first chunk to obtain updated storage metadata, and sending a copy of the updated storage metadata to at least one other CAD in a second data node.

  • Patent number: 11328071
    Abstract: A method includes obtaining data from a host, wherein the data is associated with an object and a user, applying an erasure coding procedure to the data to obtain a plurality of data chunks and at least one parity chunk, deduplicating the plurality of data chunks to obtain a plurality of deduplicated data chunks, generating storage metadata associated with the plurality of deduplicated data chunks and the at least one parity chunk, generating an object entry based on the deduplicated data chunks and the at least one parity chunk, storing the storage metadata and the object entry in an accelerator pool, storing, across a plurality of fault domains, the plurality of deduplicated data chunks and the at least one parity chunk, and initiating storage metadata distribution on the storage metadata and the object entry across the plurality of fault domains.
