Abstract
An apparatus to manage data stability, including a plurality of storage units and a control unit to determine when protected data is stored in a particular address row of at least one of the plurality of storage units, to select another storage unit of the plurality of storage units to store the protected data, and to store relevance data related to the protected data in the same address row of the selected storage unit. Methods of storing and recover data also included.
Claims14
An apparatus to manage data stability, comprising:
- a plurality of storage units;
- and
- a control unit to determine when protected data is stored in a particular address row of at least one of the plurality of storage units, to select another storage unit of the plurality of storage units to store the protected data, and to store relevance data related to the protected data in the same address row of the selected storage unit.
A method of storing data in a data stability management system, the method comprising:
- determining by a data stability managing apparatus when data requested to be stored is protected data;
- selecting by the data stability managing apparatus one of a plurality of storage units when data requested to be stored is protected data and storing the protected data in an address row that is set to be protected from among a plurality of address rows of the selected data storage unit;
- and
- selecting by the data stability managing apparatus another storage unit when the protected data is stored and storing relevance data related to the protected data in a protected address row of the other storage unit corresponding to the protected address row where the protected data was stored of the selected data storage unit.
A method of recovering data comprising:
- determining by a data stability managing apparatus when damaged data is stored in a particular protected address row of one of a plurality storage units;
- extracting data by the data stability managing apparatus to be stored in the particular address row when stored damaged data exists in the storage unit by analyzing the relevance data stored in a corresponding address row of another storage unit of the plurality of storage units and analyzing intact data stored in a corresponding address row of remaining storage units of the plurality of storage units where non-damaged data is stored.
