Application: Technique for providing custom namespaces on a file system (Patent ID: US20240193128A1)

The patent filed by Nutanix Inc. describes a technique that extends a file system infrastructure of a storage system to provide a custom namespace within a pathname of a logical construct. This custom namespace allows for the invocation of semantically interpretative context as a command embedded in a data access protocol request issued by a client, without altering the data access protocol. The extension includes a "plug-in" engine of a data access protocol server that extracts the pathname from the request, interprets the command within the context of the custom namespace, converts it to predefined operations directed to the logical construct, and returns the results to the client.

The patent includes claims for a non-transitory computer-readable medium with program instructions for executing predefined operations based on an extractable command embedded in the pathname within the custom namespace. The extractable command can be encoded in a directory name or a hidden directory name, and the predefined operations can be applied to files within a directory or recursively to a directory hierarchy. The method and apparatus described in the patent involve executing a plug-in engine to interpret the extractable command within the context of the custom namespace and converting it to predefined operations. Additionally, the predefined operations can be embodied as a user-defined script and can filter file names based on a pattern match.
