OPTIMIZED THROUGHPUT OF VOLUME CREATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240338134 titled 'OPTIMIZED THROUGHPUT OF VOLUME CREATIONS
The abstract of the patent application describes a methodology for creating volumes on a storage device in response to volume creation requests. The method involves creating operation objects for the requests, determining the use of a waiting buffer, placing operation objects in the waiting buffer, notifying a waiting buffer thread, and executing combined workloads from the waiting buffer after a predetermined waiting period.
- Simplified Explanation:
- The methodology involves creating volumes on a storage device in response to volume creation requests. - Operation objects are created and placed in a waiting buffer for efficient processing. - Workloads are combined and executed after a waiting period.
- Key Features and Innovation:
- Efficient handling of volume creation requests on a storage device. - Utilization of waiting buffers for improved processing. - Combining and executing workloads for optimized performance.
- Potential Applications:
- Data storage systems - Cloud computing environments - Network-attached storage devices
- Problems Solved:
- Streamlining volume creation processes - Enhancing storage device performance - Improving workload management
- Benefits:
- Faster response to volume creation requests - Enhanced efficiency in storage device operations - Optimal resource utilization
- Commercial Applications:
- Data centers - Cloud service providers - Storage solution vendors
- Questions about the Technology:
1. How does the methodology improve the efficiency of volume creation requests? 2. What are the potential drawbacks of using waiting buffers in this process?
- Frequently Updated Research:
- Stay updated on advancements in storage device management and workload optimization for improved performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
an example methodology includes, responsive to receiving a first volume creation request to create one or more volumes on a storage device, creating a first operation object for the first volume creation request and determining that a waiting buffer is appropriate for the first operation object. the method also includes placing the first operation object in the waiting buffer and, responsive to a determination that the first operation object is a first operation object placed in the waiting buffer, notifying a waiting buffer thread of the first operation object in the waiting buffer. the method further includes, upon expiration of a predetermined buffer waiting period defined for the waiting buffer, by the waiting buffer thread, extracting the first volume creation request and a second volume creation request from the waiting buffer, combining the first and second operation objects into single workload, and executing the single workload.
