MOVING AN APPLICATION CONTEXT TO THE CLOUD DURING MAINTENANCE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17994833 titled 'MOVING AN APPLICATION CONTEXT TO THE CLOUD DURING MAINTENANCE
Simplified Explanation
Embodiments described herein relate to methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable mediums storing instructions for placing an application in an external environment such as a cloud or edge environment, when it is rendered unavailable on a local environment such as a local host. The application's instance is moved after a connection test reveals that the application, related applications, and/or underlying physical computing devices hosting the applications and/or their data, do not respond to the test within an acceptable level of performance. By placing the application instances in an external environment, the application(s) can continue to provide an adequate level of service to one or more users until the application can be restored to its better function local host.
- The innovation involves moving application instances to an external environment when they are unavailable on a local host.
- This is done after a connection test determines that the applications and related components do not respond within acceptable performance levels.
Potential Applications
The technology could be applied in disaster recovery scenarios where local hosts are compromised, ensuring continuity of service by moving applications to external environments.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of application unavailability on local hosts by seamlessly transitioning them to external environments to maintain service levels.
Benefits
The main benefit is the ability to provide uninterrupted service to users even when local hosts fail, ensuring business continuity and user satisfaction.
Potential Commercial Applications
A potential commercial application could be offering this technology as a service to businesses looking to ensure high availability of their applications in case of local host failures.
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to disaster recovery solutions that involve moving applications to external environments in case of host failures.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact the overall performance of the applications being moved to external environments?
The article does not delve into the potential performance implications of moving applications to external environments. It would be interesting to know if there are any trade-offs in terms of performance when transitioning applications in this manner.
What security measures are in place to protect the applications and data when they are moved to external environments?
The article does not address the security aspects of moving applications to external environments. Understanding the security protocols and measures in place to safeguard the applications and data during this transition would be crucial for potential users of this technology.
