I/O Request Processing Method, Apparatus, and System, Device, and Storage Medium - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240201881 titled 'I/O Request Processing Method, Apparatus, and System, Device, and Storage Medium
The abstract of the patent application describes a method for processing input/output requests, involving receiving a target I/O request with a destination address and a target logical block address, determining a storage node based on a correspondence between logical block addresses and storage nodes, modifying the destination address if necessary, and sending the modified request.
- Simplified Explanation:
The method outlined in the patent application involves processing input/output requests by determining the appropriate storage node for a given logical block address and modifying the destination address accordingly.
- Key Features and Innovation:
- Receiving target I/O requests with destination and logical block addresses - Determining storage nodes based on logical block addresses - Modifying destination addresses if needed - Sending modified I/O requests
- Potential Applications:
- Data storage systems - Cloud computing - Networked storage environments
- Problems Solved:
- Efficient routing of I/O requests - Optimizing data storage and retrieval processes
- Benefits:
- Improved data access speeds - Enhanced storage node utilization - Streamlined I/O request processing
- Commercial Applications:

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the method determine the storage node for a given logical block address? 2. What are the potential implications of modifying destination addresses in I/O requests?
Original Abstract Submitted
an input/output (i/o) request processing method includes: receiving a target i/o request, where the target i/o request carries a destination address and a target logical block address, and the destination address is a node address of a first storage node; determining, based on a preset correspondence between a logical block address and a storage node, a second storage node corresponding to the target logical block address; if the second storage node is inconsistent with the first storage node, modifying the destination address in the target i/o request to a node address of the second storage node, to obtain a target i/o request having a modified destination address; and sending the target i/o request having the modified destination address.
