Open Drives Assigned Patent

Open Drives LLC, Culver City, CA, has been assigned a patent (10,891,081) developed by Gray, Scot, and Lee, Sean, Culver City, CA, for “systems and methods for asynchronous writing of synchronous write requests based on a dynamic write threshold.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”An asynchronous storage system may perform asynchronous writing of data from different sets of received non-consecutive synchronous write requests based on a dynamic write threshold that varies according to parameters of the storage device and/or synchronous write request patterns. The asynchronous writing may include coalescing data from a set of non-consecutive write requests in a plurality of received write requests that contain different data for a particular file, issuing a single asynchronous write request with the data that is coalesced from each write request of the set of non-consecutive write requests to the storage device instead of each write request of the set of non-consecutive write requests, and writing the data that is coalesced from each write request of the set of non-consecutive write requests to the storage device with a single write operation that is executed in response to the single asynchronous write request.”

The patent application was filed on September 30, 2020 (17/039,070).
