PREDICTIVE RECYCLING OF COMPUTER SYSTEMS IN A CLOUD ENVIRONMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18228204 titled 'PREDICTIVE RECYCLING OF COMPUTER SYSTEMS IN A CLOUD ENVIRONMENT

Simplified Explanation

This patent application is about prioritizing the recycling of computing resources in a cloud-based computing environment. Here are the key points:

  • The patent application focuses on prioritizing the recycling of computing resources, such as server-side computing systems and their accompanying resources.
  • The goal is to efficiently allocate and preserve cloud-based computing resources used for recycling.
  • Estimates are made to determine when computing resources are most likely to require recycling.
  • Computing resources that are likely to be recycled first are given priority over those that are more likely to be recycled later.
  • Background sanitizing and updating processes are used to recycle the computing resources.
  • The patent application aims to improve the efficiency of recycling computing resources in a cloud-based environment.


Original Abstract Submitted

Example embodiments facilitate prioritizing the recycling of computing resources, e.g., server-side computing systems and accompanying resources (e.g., non-volatile memory, accompanying firmware, data, etc.) leased by customers in a cloud-based computing environment, whereby computing resources (e.g., non-volatile memory) to be forensically analyzed/inspected, sanitized, and/or updated are prioritized for recycling based on estimates of when the computing resources are most likely to require recycling, e.g., via background sanitizing and updating. Computing resources that are likely to be recycled first are given priority over computing resources that are more likely to be recycled later. By prioritizing the recycling of computing resources according to embodiments discussed herein, other cloud-based computing resources that are used to implement computing resource recycling can be efficiently allocated and preserved.
