Egnyte Assigned Four Patents

System and method for eliminating full rescan synchronizations on service restarts
Egnyte, Inc., Mountain View, CA, has been assigned a patent (12298944) developed by Koos; Remus, San Jose, CA, Broner; Tal, Sunnyvale, CA, and Krishnan; Harikesavan, San Jose, CA, for “system and method for eliminating full rescan synchronizations on service restarts.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “A novel method for restarting a steady-state synchronization process includes persisting synchronization data in non-volatile memory before restarting, and utilizing the persisted synchronization data to restart the synchronization where the prior steady-state synchronization process left off. In a particular embodiment, the synchronization data is indicative of a particular point of the synchronization process and is utilized to begin synchronizing from that point after the service is restarted. In a more particular embodiment, the synchronization data is a particular operation of a sequence of operations performed as part of the synchronization. In another particular embodiment, operations associated with a batch are applied before stopping the synchronization.”

Enhancing content collaboration by conflict detection and resolution in hybrid cloud cache
Egnyte, Inc., Mountain View, CA, has been assigned a patent (12299474) developed by Singh; Upendra, Salpekar; Ajay, Guthikonda; Bhaskar, Guerra; Andrew, and Tang; David, Mountain View, CA, for “system and method for enhancing content collaboration by conflict detection and resolution in a hybrid cloud cache.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “A system and methods for enhancing content collaboration by conflict detection and resolution. A hybrid cloud cache receives a request from a client to upload an object to the cloud. The hybrid cloud cache may perform an internal lookup to find the latest version of the object known to it. This lookup may return a local identifier or a cloud identifier. The cache may compare a client-provided identifier to the local identifier or to the cloud identifier that is mapped to the local identifier to determine if the client-provided identifier refers to the latest uploaded version of the object. The system may determine that a conflict exists if the client-provided identifier does not match either identifier. The system may generate an alternate name for the object and upload the renamed object to the cloud from the hybrid cloud cache.”

The patent application was filed on 2023-11-16 (18/511634).

Presenting hybrid cloud cache as file system
Egnyte, Inc., Mountain View, CA, has been assigned a patent (12298945) developed by Guerra; Andrew, Salpekar; Ajay, and Tang; David, Mountain View, CA, for “system and method of presenting a hybrid cloud cache as a file system.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “A system and methods for presenting a hybrid cloud cache as a file system. The system implements a set of standard file system command line interfaces that present the objects stored by the hybrid cloud cache to users of the system as if the users were viewing and interacting with a traditional file system. The system provides an interactive shell to the users to view the contents of the hybrid cloud cache. The system may be configured to operate on a live instance as well as on an on-disk structure of the hybrid cloud cache. The system may provide the ability to present partially cached cloud data as a file system via the interactive shell for the purposes of development, support, and troubleshooting.”

The patent application was filed on 2024-02-19 (18/581122).

Generating sparse tree for presenting and navigating through hierarchical files
Egnyte, Inc., Mountain View, CA, has been assigned a patent (12147388) developed by Sharma; Shishir, Mountain View, CA, Kaczmarek; Tomasz, Poznan, Poland, Rek; Lukasz, and Zmudzinski; Krzysztof, Mountain View, CA, for “system and methods for generating sparse tree for presenting and navigating through hierarchical files.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “Systems, apparatuses, and methods for generating a sparse tree view for presenting and assisting a user to conduct searches and navigate through a hierarchical file system more efficiently. A sparse tree assists a user to navigate through search or filtering results by hiding irrelevant information and indicating locations with the highest rate of “hits” using a form of heatmap or other indicator of the potential relevance of a tree node or leaf.”
