RING ARCHITECTURE-BASED WORKLOAD DISTRIBUTION IN A MICROSERVICE COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240095092 titled 'RING ARCHITECTURE-BASED WORKLOAD DISTRIBUTION IN A MICROSERVICE COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes techniques for managing workloads in data processing systems by determining a set of containers to process data records in a ring configuration.

  • The method determines containers to process data records in subsets.
  • The set of containers is deployed in a ring configuration to process the workload.
  • Containers in the ring configuration can automatically process data records from inactive containers in the subset.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in cloud computing, big data processing, and distributed systems.

Problems Solved

Efficient workload management, load balancing, and fault tolerance in data processing systems.

Benefits

Improved performance, scalability, and reliability in processing large volumes of data.

Potential Commercial Applications

1. Cloud service providers 2. Data analytics companies

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of container orchestration tools like Kubernetes for workload management in data processing systems.

Unanswered Questions

How does the method handle failures in the ring configuration?

The abstract does not mention how the method addresses failures or errors in the processing of data records within the ring configuration.

What is the impact of the ring configuration on overall system performance?

The abstract does not provide information on how the ring configuration affects the overall performance of the data processing system.


Original Abstract Submitted

techniques are disclosed for managing workloads in data processing systems. for example, a method determines a set of containers for processing a given workload of data records, wherein each container of the set of containers is configured to process a given subset of the data records. the method causes deployment of the set of containers in a ring configuration to process the given workload of data records such that at least one of the containers in the ring configuration automatically processes one or more data records of a subset of data records assigned to another container in the ring configuration that becomes inactive.
