Oracle Assigned Patent

Oracle International Corporation, Redwood Shores, CA, has been assigned a patent (11727955) developed by Jhatakia, Jitesh Bakul, Superior, CO, Wharton, Cathleen Susan, Louisville, CO, Black, III, John Mitchell, Loveland, CO, and Noble, George Edward, Boulder, CO, for a “data tape media action recommendation based on media drive calibration.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “Techniques for generating action recommendations for a data tape system based on a media drive calibration are disclosed. A system receives a request to perform an operation including an exchange between a data tape and a media drive. If the system determines that the operation is a data tape validation operation, the system determines whether the media drive is calibrated. If the calibration value of the media drive does not meet a threshold, the system performs a calibration procedure. The system may calibrate the media drive or replace the media drive with a calibrated media drive. The system performs the validation operation. Based on a validation result, a data tape quality value, and the media drive calibration value, the system generates a recommended action for a data tape.”

The patent application was filed on 2022-06-15 (17/841321).
