A plurality of computing devices are communicatively coupled to each other via a network, and each of the plurality of computing devices comprises one or more of a plurality of storage devices. A plurality of failure resilient address spaces are distributed across the plurality of storage devices such that each of the plurality of failure resilient address spaces spans a plurality of the storage devices. Each one of the plurality of failure resilient address spaces is organized into a plurality of stripes. Each one or more stripes of the plurality of stripes is part of a respective one of a plurality of forward error correction (FEC) protection domains. Each of the plurality of stripes may comprise a plurality of storage blocks. Each block of a particular one of the plurality of stripes may reside on a different one of the plurality of storage devices.

Methods and systems for backing up and restoring sets of electronic files using sets of pseudo-virtual disks are described. The sets of electronic files may be sourced from or be stored using one or more different data sources including one or more real machines and/or one or more virtual machines. A first snapshot of the sets of electronic files may be aggregated from the different data sources and stored using a first pseudo-virtual disk. A second snapshot of the sets of electronic files may be aggregated from the different data sources subsequent to the generation of the first pseudo-virtual disk and stored using the first pseudo-virtual disk or a second pseudo-virtual disk different from the first pseudo-virtual disk.

Methods, systems, and devices for performing safety event detection for a memory device are described. For example, a memory array of a memory device may operate in a first mode of operation (e.g., a normal mode of operation). An event associated with a reduction of data integrity for the memory array may be detected. In some cases, the event may be associated with a temperature of the memory device, a voltage level detected at the memory device, an error event at the memory device, or the like. Based on the detected event, it may be determined whether to adjust the operation of the memory device to a second mode of operation (e.g., a safe mode of operation). The second mode of operation may correspond to a mode of operation that increases data retention characteristics.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a memory system and an operating method thereof. The memory system may include a first processor and a second processor. The first processor is configured to manage or process a main read count table including a plurality of first read count table entries each corresponding to one of a plurality of super memory blocks. The second processor is configured to manage or process, when an error occurs during an operation of reading data stored in one of the plurality of super memory blocks, a partial read count table including a read count table entry including information on a count of the read operation executed during a recovery operation for the error, and transmit an update message to the first processor for updating the main read count table based on the partial read count table.

Exemplary systems and methods for archiving data objects using secondary copies are disclosed. The system creates one or more secondary copies of primary data that contains multiple data objects. The system may maintain a first data structure that tracks the data objects for which the system has created secondary copies and the locations of the secondary copies. To archive data objects in the primary data, the system identifies data objects to be archived, verifies that previously-created secondary copies of the identified data objects exist, and replaces the identified data objects with stubs. The system may maintain a second data structure that both tracks the stubs and refers to the first data structure, thereby creating an association between the stubs and the locations of the secondary copies.

As described herein, a system, method, and computer program are provided for a microservice lifecycle operator. In use, at least one specification for a microservice is identified. Further, a lifecycle of the microservice is managed, using a lifecycle operator and the at least one specification.

An example computing device includes a controller to control operation of a firmware subsystem of the computing device. The controller is separate from a main processor of the computing device. A memory stores subsystem data that is useable by the controller. The subsystem data includes recovery information executable by the controller to initiate recovery of the subsystem. The computing device further includes recovery coordination instructions. The recovery coordination instructions determine integrity of the recovery information as stored on the memory and. In response to determining that the recovery information lacks integrity, the recovery coordination instructions initiate recovery of the firmware subsystem using a backup of the recovery information and perform recovery of the firmware subsystem using an update to the firmware subsystem.

A method and apparatus for implementing power up detection in a power down cycle to dynamically determine whether a failed component in a system prevents another Initial Program Load (IPL) or re-IPL, or result in a loss of resources. Predefined mandatory functions are called to collect power down/up data that prevents re-IPL, or results in the reduction of resources. A user is notified, allowing the customer to continually utilize the system, while ordering hardware to be replaced.

Provided is an image recognition processor. The image recognition processor includes a plurality of nano cores arranged in rows and columns and configured to perform a pattern recognition operation on an input feature using a kernel coefficient in response to each instruction, an instruction memory configured to provide the instruction to each of the plurality of nano cores, a feature memory configured to provide the input feature to each of the plurality of nano cores, a kernel memory configured to provide the kernel coefficients to the plurality of nano cores, and a functional safety processor core configured to receive a result of a pattern recognition operation outputted from the plurality of nano cores to detect the presence of a recognition error, and perform a fault tolerance function on the detected recognition error.

Methods and systems for backing up and restoring sets of electronic files using sets of pseudo-virtual disks are described. The sets of electronic files may be sourced from or be stored using one or more different data sources including one or more real machines and/or one or more virtual machines. A first snapshot of the sets of electronic files may be aggregated from the different data sources and stored using a first pseudo-virtual disk. A second snapshot of the sets of electronic files may be aggregated from the different data sources subsequent to the generation of the first pseudo-virtual disk and stored using the first pseudo-virtual disk or a second pseudo-virtual disk different from the first pseudo-virtual disk.
