COMPUTING SYSTEM GENERATING MAP DATA, AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18140420 titled 'COMPUTING SYSTEM GENERATING MAP DATA, AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

- This patent application describes a method for operating a computing system with multiple storage devices, a memory device, and a switch. - The method involves a first storage device sending a mapping request with metadata for user data to the memory device through the switch. - The memory device then identifies a standard associated with the metadata in the mapping request. - Based on this standard, the memory device generates map data that shows the relationship between the physical block address and the logical block address of the user data. - The purpose of this method is to efficiently manage and organize data storage in the computing system.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of operating a computing system which includes a plurality of storage devices, a memory device, and a switch, is provided. The method includes: providing a first mapping request including first metadata corresponding to first user data to the memory device through the switch, by a first storage device of the plurality of storage devices; identifying a first standard corresponding to the first metadata based on the first mapping request, by the memory device; and generating first map data indicating a relationship between a first physical block address and a first logical block address of the first user data based on the first standard, by the memory device.
