Pensando Systems, Inc., Milpitas, CA, has been assigned a patent (11,221,972) developed by Raman, Balakrishnan, Fremont, CA, Huilgol, Chaitanya, Bengaluru, India, Nagulapalli, Harinadh, Kotha, Murty Subba Rama Chandra, San Jose, CA, Shanbhogue, Sanjay, Santa Clara, CA, Kari, Varada Raja Kumar, Bengaluru, India, and Danivas, Vishwas, Santa Clara, CA, for “memory management method, memory device, and memory control circuit for improving data classification.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “Increased fairness for small vs large NVMe IO commands for accessing a non-volatile memory namespace provided by a network attached storage appliance can be realized by placing NVMe submissions received by a NVMe SQ on a first fabric queue set or a second fabric queue set based on a fairness policy. The first fabric queue set accesses the namespace via a first fabric connection. The second fabric queue set accesses the namespace via a second fabric connection. Accessing the namespace via the fabric connections results in NVMe completions that are merged from the fabric queue sets onto an NVMe completion queue. A process producing the NVMe submissions and receiving the resulting NVMe completions may be unaware of the multiple fabric queue sets.”

The patent application was filed on October 8, 2020 (17/066,285).
