REPURPOSING PREVIOUS SLICING ARTIFACTS FOR A NEW SLICING FOR CONTROLLABLE AND DYNAMIC SLICE SIZE AND REDUCING THE IN-MEMORY FOOTPRINT FOR LARGER SHARES HAVING BILLIONS OF FILES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17936935 titled 'REPURPOSING PREVIOUS SLICING ARTIFACTS FOR A NEW SLICING FOR CONTROLLABLE AND DYNAMIC SLICE SIZE AND REDUCING THE IN-MEMORY FOOTPRINT FOR LARGER SHARES HAVING BILLIONS OF FILES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application describes a method for slicing filesystem data to create slices based on specified criteria and then returning a list of these slices in response to a query.
- Instantiating a slice creation process after completing a portion of a crawling process in a filesystem
- Receiving slicing criteria for the slice creation process
- Slicing filesystem data to create slices according to the criteria
- Servicing a query by returning a list of one or more slices
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in data management systems, cloud computing, and information retrieval systems.
Problems Solved
This technology helps in efficiently organizing and retrieving large amounts of data stored in a filesystem.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved data organization, faster data retrieval, and enhanced scalability of filesystems.
Potential Commercial Applications
The potential commercial applications of this technology include data storage solutions, cloud services, and search engine optimization tools.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art for this technology could be the use of data partitioning techniques in database management systems.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology handle security and access control for the sliced data?
The article does not address the specific mechanisms for ensuring security and access control for the sliced filesystem data.
What are the potential limitations or drawbacks of this slicing process?
The article does not discuss any potential limitations or drawbacks of the slicing process, such as increased processing overhead or potential data loss risks.
Original Abstract Submitted
One example method includes, in response to completion of a portion of a crawling process performed in a filesystem, instantiating a slice creation process, receiving slicing criteria concerning the slice creation process, slicing filesystem data to create slices according to the slicing criteria, and servicing a query by returning a list that lists one or more of the slices. The slicing criteria may include a specified number of slices and/or a specified size for the slices.
