File replication method for software distribution across multi-node network
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11886390B2) outlines a method for distributing software release files across a multi-node network efficiently. The method involves identifying replication information for different versions of a file used by various nodes in the network, calculating the differences between these versions based on checksums, and transmitting the necessary update data to ensure consistency across nodes. The system described in the patent includes processors and memory components to execute these instructions effectively.
Furthermore, the patent details additional features such as receiving acknowledgments and notifications from nodes, dividing files into multiple portions for transmission, and maintaining version logs for reference. The method also includes routines for determining file types, sizes, and thresholds to optimize the distribution process. By utilizing checksums and replication information, the system ensures that only relevant updates are transmitted, reducing network traffic and enhancing overall efficiency in software deployment across the network.
