- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17714514 Titled 'DATA FLOW CONTROL IN DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING SYSTEMS'
Simplified Explanation
Datacenters and distributed computing systems offer computing resources like processing power and data storage as services accessible through a computer network. These services are used by tenants, such as corporations or schools, who have multiple users or groups with their own websites. To make it easier to access relevant data, each user, group, or website can have their own dedicated storage location called a shard. A shard can store various types of content like emails, chats, documents, photos, and videos that can be interacted with by the user, group, or website.
Original Abstract Submitted
Datacenters or other large-scale distributed computing systems can provide computing resources such as processing power and data storage as computing services accessible to tenants via a computer network. A tenant, such as a corporation, school, or organization, can have multiple users or groups of users with corresponding websites. To facilitate ready access, data relevant to a user, group, or website of a tenant can be stored in a dedicated network location sometimes referred to as a shard. A shard can be a physical and/or logical storage location that contains emails, chats, instant messages, documents, photos, videos, or other types of content items with which the user, group, or website can interact.
