Abstract: A first storage system compresses data relating to read and write by a primary site and stores the data in a first physical volume. A second storage system compresses data relating to read and write by a secondary site and stores the data in a second physical volume. When performing replication for transferring the data stored in the first physical volume of the first storage system to the second storage system and storing the data in the second physical volume, the first storage system and the second storage system determine, based on a compression scheme executable by the first storage system and a compression scheme executable by the second storage system, a compression scheme to be applied to transfer target data and transfer the transfer target data compressed by the determined compression scheme.

Abstract: In a distributed computing system, a bottleneck for performance of a network is avoided and a high-performance scalable resource management function is achieved. The distributed computing system includes a plurality of components connected to each other via a network. Each of the components includes a plurality of compute nodes, a plurality of drive casings, and a plurality of storage devices. The network includes a plurality of network switches and is configured in layers. When a storage region is to be allocated to a compute node among the compute nodes, a managing unit selects, from the storage devices, a storage device related to the storage region to be allocated or selects, from the drives, a drive casing related to the storage region to be allocated, based on a network distance between two of the compute node, the storage device, and the drive casing.

Abstract: An information processing device and a method having high processing performance are proposed. Provided is an information processing device mounted with an accelerator that executes predetermined processing on data, the information processing device including: a storage device configured to store data; and a host control unit configured to request the accelerator to execute the predetermined processing included in a task requested from an outside, in which the data is compressed and stored in the storage device, and in which the accelerator: reads the data to be processed among the data stored in the storage device and executes the predetermined processing on the data while decompressing the read data in response to a request from the host control unit.

Abstract: A possible performance bottleneck associated with insufficient network bands is mitigated to allow improvement of access performance of a storage system.
A storage system includes a first node with a storage medium of storage and a plurality of second nodes each with a controller function for the storage, and is communicatively connected to a host providing an access request to the storage. One of the plurality of second nodes is determined to be a node to which a controller function executing access processing on the storage is assigned on the basis of a first amount of data transfer between the second node and the host and a second amount of data transfer between the second node and the first node.-

Abstract: A storage system for continuing I/O without affecting drive box addition to a host computer includes: a plurality of drive boxes for connecting to a computer device that transmits commands for data reads or writes; and a storage controller connected to the drive boxes. A first drive box provides a first storage region to the computer device. The storage controller manages correspondence between the first storage region and a physical storage region of the drives constituting the first storage region. The first drive box receives a command for the first storage region from the computer device and transfers the command to the storage controller. The storage controller generates a data transfer command including a data storage destination based on the address management table, and transfers the command to the first drive box. The first drive box then transfers the data transfer command to the second drive box.

Abstract: An intermediate device is disposed between a host and a search target. Search requests of m-multiplicity (requests involving a data transfer amount that is unknown to the host) for at least one among n-processes (n is an integer equal to or more than 1) to be executed by the host are issued as requests from the host to the intermediate device. A temporary area associated with the search requests is allocated in the host. For each of the search requests, the intermediate device recognizes a hit data volume in accordance with the search request within a search scope. For each of the search, the hit data is written in an area of the temporary area that corresponds to a write destination address. The write destination address is updated for each of the search requests on the basis of the recognized hit data volume.

Abstract: A database search system receives a command and searches for data, which meets a search condition specified on the basis of the received command, in a whole database which is a database as an entity. The database search system generates a virtual database which is a list of address pointers to the found data and stores the generated virtual database.
