Parameter-Based Versioning For Log-Based Block Devices - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18077718 titled 'Parameter-Based Versioning For Log-Based Block Devices
Simplified Explanation
Data log-based logical block devices are used to control parameter-based versioning at a block device level. The block device stores data logs with data and corresponding metadata, indicating historical time. Requests for data are processed by identifying data in the log that matches the historical time parameter in the request.
- Data log-based logical block devices control versioning at a block device level.
- Metadata in the data log indicates historical time.
- Requests for data are processed by matching historical time parameters.
Key Features and Innovation
- Use of data log-based logical block devices for version control.

Original Abstract Submitted
Data log-base logical block devices are used to control parameter-based versioning at a block-device level. Memory in the block device stores data log indicating data and corresponding metadata, the metadata indicating a particular historical time. The block device may receive a request, such as a remote procedure call (RPC), for data from the logical block device, and identify data included in the data log having metadata that matches or satisfies a historical time parameter included in and extracted from the request.
