Cohesity Assigned Patent

Cohesity, Inc., San Jose, CA, has been assigned a patent (10,996,875) developed by Aron, Mohit, Saratoga, CA, and Reddy, Vinay, San Jose, CA, for “making more active use of a secondary storage system.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”Techniques are disclosed which allow a secondary storage system to provide data to non-production workloads in conjunction with performing data backup and protection tasks. As disclosed, a secondary storage system exposes backup data stored by the secondary storage system to other workloads, such as test and development applications, data analytics, etc. These non-production workloads can run at the same time the secondary storage system provides backup services to a primary storage system. This consolidation eliminates the need for an enterprise to deploy separate storage clusters for analytics, test and development applications, etc. and eliminates unnecessary copies of data.”

The patent application was filed on August 8, 2019 (Appl. No.16/536,148).
