BACKUP SERVICE FOR A SOFTWARE PLATFORM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18090924 titled 'BACKUP SERVICE FOR A SOFTWARE PLATFORM

The patent application describes systems and methods for backing up data for a software platform by segmenting data objects into data chunks based on content attributes and storing them.

  • Data objects are segmented into data chunks based on content attributes such as content type and frequency of content changes.
  • Pages from a content collaboration platform and issues from an issue tracking platform are grouped into chunks for backup.
  • The size of the chunks is determined by content attributes like the relationship between text and non-text content, number of associated users, and number of comments.

Potential Applications: - Data backup and recovery systems for software platforms. - Efficient storage and retrieval of data objects based on content attributes. - Enhanced data management for content collaboration and issue tracking platforms.

Problems Solved: - Streamlining the backup process for large volumes of data objects. - Improving data organization and retrieval based on content attributes. - Enhancing data security and disaster recovery capabilities for software platforms.

Benefits: - Increased efficiency in data backup and recovery processes. - Better organization and management of data objects. - Enhanced data security and disaster recovery capabilities.

Commercial Applications: Title: "Efficient Data Backup and Recovery Systems for Software Platforms" This technology can be applied in various industries such as IT, software development, project management, and collaboration platforms. It can benefit companies by improving data management, reducing the risk of data loss, and enhancing overall system reliability.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the segmentation of data objects into chunks improve the backup process? - Segmenting data objects into chunks based on content attributes allows for more efficient storage and retrieval, reducing the time and resources needed for backup processes.

2. What are the key content attributes used to determine the size of data chunks? - Content attributes such as content type, frequency of content changes, and the number of associated users are used to determine the size of data chunks, optimizing the backup process for different types of data objects.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods for backing up data for a software platform include segmenting data objects from a software platform into data chunks, which are subsequently stored. Data chunks may include content from data objects having similar content attributes, such as content type and an estimated frequency at which the content changes. In various embodiments, pages from a content collaboration platform and issues from an issue tracking platform are grouped into chunks and stored for backup. A size of the chunks may be based on one or more content attributes associated with the pages or issues. Examples of content attributes include a relationship between text and non-text content, a number of associated users, and a number of comments.
