METHOD, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CROSS-REGIONAL DATA SEARCHING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17855884 titled 'METHOD, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CROSS-REGIONAL DATA SEARCHING

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes a method, electronic device, and computer program product for cross-regional data searching. The method involves the following steps:

1. Acquiring a data identifier of the target data when a searching request for the target data is received at a first node. 2. Determining a second node in the same region as the first node that stores metadata of the target data, based on the data identifier. The metadata includes the data identifier. 3. Determining a third node in a different region from the first region that stores the actual target data, based on the metadata.

  • The method allows for efficient searching of data across different regions.
  • It enables the identification of the location of the target data based on its data identifier.
  • The method ensures that the actual target data is stored in a node located in a different region from the requesting node.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Cloud computing: The method can be used to search for and access data stored in different regions of a cloud infrastructure.
  • Distributed databases: It can facilitate the retrieval of data stored in different regions of a distributed database system.
  • Content delivery networks: The method can help in locating and retrieving content stored in different regions of a content delivery network.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient cross-regional data searching: The method provides a systematic approach to search for data stored in different regions, eliminating the need for manual searching or complex algorithms.
  • Data accessibility: It ensures that data can be accessed from any region, regardless of the location of the requesting node.
  • Scalability: The method can handle a large volume of data stored in different regions, allowing for scalability in data storage and retrieval.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved efficiency: The method streamlines the process of searching for data across different regions, saving time and resources.
  • Enhanced data accessibility: It enables users to access data from any region, promoting seamless data sharing and collaboration.
  • Scalability and flexibility: The method can be applied to various systems and infrastructures, accommodating the storage and retrieval of data in different regions.


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, an electronic device, and a computer program product for cross-regional data searching. The method includes acquiring a data identifier of target data in response to receiving a searching request for the target data at a first node. The method includes determining, based on the data identifier, a second node storing metadata of the target data, wherein both the first node and the second node are located in a first region, and the metadata includes the data identifier. The method further includes determining, based on the metadata, a third node storing the target data, wherein the third node is located in a second region different from the first region.
