US 2022/0276992 A1 · Real-time Transactionally Consistent Change Notifications

Abstract

A method includes executing an initial instance of a change log process for a distributed system, each instance of the change log process configured to store a transaction history of transactions executed on the distributed system. The method also includes receiving transaction requests for executing corresponding transactions on the distributed system and determining a change log load based on the received transaction requests. The method includes executing at least one subsequent instance of the change log process when the change log load satisfied a threshold load. When multiple instances of the change log process are executing, the method includes ceasing execution of the at least one subsequent instance of the change log process and merging the transaction history of the initial instance of the change log process and the transaction history of the at least one subsequent instance of the change log process.

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method when executed by data processing hardware causes the data processing hardware to perform operations comprising:

receiving a request from a user device to monitor data events for data within a distributed storage system;
identifying that the request seeks to retrieve information for a respective data event occurring at the distributed storage system;
generating, based on an operation of the respective data event, a new event log file to store a transaction history of the respective data event;
recording the respective data event in the new event log file;
consolidating the new event log file and a preexisting event log file to form a consolidated log file;
and
transmitting the consolidated log file to the user device, the consolidated log file configured to cause the user device to display the information associated with the consolidated log file on a graphical user interface (GUI) executing at the user device.
