SIOS Technology Assigned Patent

SIOS Technology Corporation, Lexington, SC, has been assigned a patent (10,089,236) developed by Razin, Sergey A, and To, Yokuki, Columbia, SC, for “apparatus and method of performing agentless remote IO catching analysis, prediction, automation, and recommendation in a computer environment.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: “A host device includes a controller configured to receive input/output, (IO) access information associated with an IO workload, the IO access information identifying at least one of a read action and a write action associated with the IO workload over a period of time. Based upon the received IO access information associated with the storage element, the controller is configured to derive a predicted cache access ratio associated with the IO workload and relating a predicted number of cache accesses associated with the IO workload with at least one of a total number of read actions and a total number of write actions associated with the IO workload. When the predicted cache access ratio reaches a threshold cache access ratio value, the controller is configured to identify the IO workload as an IO workload candidate for caching by the host device.”

The patent application was filed on July 13, 2016 (15/209,000).
