Open Drives Assigned Patent

Open Drives LLC, Culver City, CA, has been assigned a patent (10,228,860) developed by Brue, Jeff, Culver City, CA, Knowles, Chad, Beverly Hills, CA, and Wilsker, Michael, Culver City, CA , for a “storage optimization based I/O pattern modeling.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”Provided are methods and systems for optimizing storage performance on a particular user system based on modeling of the input/output (I/O) primarily encountered by the particular user system. An I/O pattern representative of the primary usage scenario on the user system is obtained and then modeled. The modeling identifies the storage operations involved in the primary storage usage scenario I/O and adjusts values for one or more configurable settings of the storage operations. The adjusted values modify the behavior of the storage operations for prioritized reading, writing, and caching of the primary storage usage scenario I/O over reading, writing, and caching of I/O unrelated to the primary storage usage scenario.”

The patent application was filed on November 14, 2016 (15/350,394).
