CHUNK AWARE IMAGE LOCALITY SCORES FOR CONTAINER IMAGES IN MULTI-NODE CLUSTERS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18049548 titled 'CHUNK AWARE IMAGE LOCALITY SCORES FOR CONTAINER IMAGES IN MULTI-NODE CLUSTERS

The present disclosure introduces methods, systems, and techniques for managing replication in a deployable object, such as a pod (e.g., a group of one or more containers). When a pod is initiated in a cluster, the deployable object may start one or more virtual computer systems (e.g., containers) that pull container images from a registry server. The processing device identifies which container image should be pulled first, and a scheduler prioritizes the subsequent replication of archived data of the virtual computer systems based on computed scores. The processing device then executes the replication of the archived data based on the scheduler's prioritization.

  • Methods for managing replication in a deployable object like a pod
  • Starting virtual computer systems in a pod to pull container images from a registry server

Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure provides methods, systems, and techniques for managing replication in a deployable object, such as a pod (e.g., a group of one or more containers). For example, when a pod is started in a cluster, the deployable object may start one or more virtual computer systems (e.g., containers), which may pull (e.g., initiate and run) container images from a registry server. The processing device may thus identify, such as on the file level, which container image should be pulled first. A scheduler of the one or more virtual computer systems may prioritize, based on the computed scores, a subsequent replication of archived data of the one or more virtual computer systems to be performed. The processing device may then execute, based on the prioritization by the scheduler, the subsequent replication of the archived data of the one or more virtual computer systems in the deployable object.
