VCE IP Holding Assigned Patent

VCE IP Holding Company LLC, Richardson, TX, has been assigned a patent (10,379,771) developed by Wu, Jiatai, Gurram, Rama Krishna, San Jose, CA, and Kattumadam, Krishna, Saratoga, CA, for “systems and methods for policy driven storage in a hyper-convergence data center.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system architecture for a policy driven disk IO throughput control for a hyper-converged storage provider. The computing architecture provides a flexible and real-time feature to the IO throughput management of a hyper-converged or converged infrastructure. In particular, through the use of centrally applied policy driven controls, the disk IO throughput allocation of different applications/clients of the converged infrastructure is gauged or otherwise controlled over the network bandwidth that link to the storage pool of the infrastructure. Through the use of the system architecture, the converged infrastructure may not utilize hard-coded disk resource allocation for each application/client in an isolated fashion, thereby allowing the IO throughput management to be flexible and agile in response to executed applications. Further, the IP throughput controlling and storage IP capacity of the converged infrastructure may be maintained separately.”

The patent application was filed on September 17, 2018 (16/133,304).
