DataCore Assigned Two Patents

Accelerating responses to requests for transactions involving data operations, network managed volumes

Accelerating responses to requests for transactions involving data operations
DataCore Software Corporation, Fort Lauderdale, FL, has been assigned a patent (9,411,518) developed by Aral, Ziya, and Putra, Roni J., Pompano Beach, FL, for a ““
method, computer program product and apparatus for accelerating responses to requests for transactions involving data operations.

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “Responding to IO requests made by an application to an operating system within a computing device implements IO performance acceleration that interfaces with the logical and physical disk management components of the operating system and within that pathway provides a system memory based disk block cache. The logical disk management component of the operating system identifies logical disk addresses for IO requests sent from the application to the operating system. These addresses are translated to physical disk addresses that correspond to disk blocks available on a physical storage resource. The disk block cache stores cached disk blocks that correspond to the disk blocks available on the physical storage resource, such that IO requests may be fulfilled from the disk block cache. Provision of the disk block cache between the logical and physical disk management components accommodates tailoring of efficiency to any applications making IO requests, and flexible interaction with various different physical disks.

The patent application was filed on October 14, 2014 (14/513,840).

Network managed volumes
DataCore Software Corporation, Fort Lauderdale, FL, has been assigned a patent (9,344,235) developed by Putra, Roni J., Pompano Beach, FL, Connolly, Nicholas, Purley, Great Britain, Chen, Ye, Tom, Boca Raton, FL, Linde, David A., Plantation, FL, Aral, Ziya A., Pompano Beach, FL, Ghanem, Mohamed, Coconut Creek, FL, and Friedman, Mark, Naples, FL, for a “
network managed volumes.

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “Disclosed are network managed volumes that enable simplified and more efficient use of information technology assets by allocating physical disk drives as needed. A pool of storage can be defined and populated with physical disks that are accessible in a storage area network. Virtual volumes are created from the storage pool, with each virtual volume being separately allocable to a host device, (e.g., client, application server, etc.). Thus, host devices that have been allocated these virtual volumes perceive ownership of the entire volume, without requiring a present allocation of physical storage space having the same characteristics, but with seamless introduction of physical resources as needed.

The patent application was filed on June 7, 2002 (10/165,746).
