Sharded distributed storage system for high accessibility data
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11816088B2) discloses a computing device within a data management system designed to manage sharded distributed storage of high accessibility data across multiple computing devices. The system involves storing data in shards divided into revisions and managing these based on an activity state model comprising writing, resolving, metadata update, and reading states. The processor of the computing device is programmed to handle cross-shard read requests by adding them to a delayed action queue, transitioning them to a resolving state, and converting them to read requests for processing. Additionally, the system ensures that write requests are not processed while in the resolving state, maintaining the integrity of the data management process.
Furthermore, the patent details a method for managing sharded distributed storage of high accessibility data across computing devices within the data management system. This method involves obtaining cross-shard read requests, determining the state of the data, and processing the requests accordingly. The processor is programmed to handle various scenarios such as adding read requests to a queue, processing requests sequentially, and managing write requests based on the system's state. By following a structured approach to data management, the system aims to enhance the accessibility and reliability of stored data across multiple computing devices, ensuring efficient processing and retrieval of information while maintaining data integrity throughout the process.
