METHOD, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ADJUSTING PERFORMANCE OF BLOCK STORAGE SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240281340 titled 'METHOD, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ADJUSTING PERFORMANCE OF BLOCK STORAGE SYSTEM
The method described in the abstract involves monitoring the input/output load of a block storage system over different time periods, determining changes in the load, and adjusting the system's performance accordingly based on predetermined thresholds.
- Monitoring input/output load sets of the block storage system
- Determining changes in input/output load over time periods
- Adjusting system performance based on load changes and predetermined thresholds
Potential Applications: - Data backup and restoration systems - Performance optimization in client-server environments - Resource management in storage systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient resource allocation in block storage systems - Timely performance adjustments based on workload changes
Benefits: - Improved system performance and reliability - Enhanced data protection and recovery capabilities - Optimal resource utilization in storage environments
Commercial Applications: Title: "Dynamic Performance Optimization for Block Storage Systems" This technology can be utilized in cloud storage services, data centers, and enterprise storage solutions to enhance performance and reliability, ultimately leading to better customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method differ from traditional load balancing techniques? 2. What are the key factors that determine the optimal performance adjustments in the block storage system?
Original Abstract Submitted
a method includes monitoring a first input/output (i/o) load set of the block storage system within a first time period and a second i/o load set within a second time period, wherein the block storage system is configured to back up and restore data in a client and has preconfigured predetermined thresholds. the method further includes determining a change of an i/o load of the block storage system based on the first i/o load set and the second i/o load set. the method further includes determining, based on the change of the i/o load, that an i/o load within a third time period reaches a first predetermined threshold. the method further includes adjusting i/o performance of the block storage system based on the i/o load within the third time period in response to determining that the i/o load within the third time period reaches the first predetermined threshold.
