Abstract
The present invention provides a method of mobilizing user data in a computing network. The method includes (i) providing a computing network that stores and delivers data, wherein the network comprises multiple lodging nodes that are geographically distributed; (ii) categorizing the data stored in and delivered by the computing network into user data and system data; and (iii) delivering an end user (EU)'s user data to one of the lodging nodes. One of the benefits from this method is that an end user does not need to carry his/her data with a mobile computing device or storage device while on the move, while the security, safety, reliability and redundancy of the user data are maintained.
Claims19
A method of mobilizing user data in a computing network comprising:
- (i) providing a computing network that stores and delivers data, and categorizing said data stored in and delivered by the computing network into user data and system data and further dividing the user data into structured user data and unstructured user data;
- (ii) providing multiple lodging nodes in the computing network that are geographically distributed, wherein said multiple lodging nodes include one or more region nodes each of which is equipped with an object store and is responsible for commanding one or more storage nodes each of which is equipped with a data store, and wherein said structured user data is stored in the object store of a region node and said unstructured user data is stored in the data store of a storage node under the commanding of said region node;
- (iii) marking said user data as mobile data that will participate in data mobility which is defined as transferring data from one lodging node to another lodging node, and
- (iv) delivering an end user (EU)'s user data to one of the lodging nodes that is geographically closer to the EU for the EU to access and retrieve the EU's data in the most efficient way from the computing network.
