US 2026/0093515 A1 · COMBINED PACKETS FOR A DISTRIBUTED DATABASE

Abstract

A distributed database may use a large amount of traffic between individual components of the distributed database. The distributed database may experience latency as a result of network limitations, such as a packet per second maximum. Individual components of the distributed database hosted by a particular computing device may target individual components hosted on another particular computing device. The distributed database system may combine the packets targeting components on the other computing device to reduce the likelihood a packet per second maximum causes latency in the distributed database system.

Dependent claims

A system, comprising:

a first computing device hosting a plurality of virtual machines implementing a plurality of management instances;
a second computing device hosting a plurality of storage partitions;
wherein to send data packets between the management instances and the storage partitions, a proxy associated with the first computing device is configured to:
receive, from the plurality of management instances, a plurality of data packets which correspond to a plurality of clients, wherein the plurality of data packets have respective intended destinations at respective ones of the plurality of storage partitions;
combine the plurality of data packets into a single combined data packet;
and
send the single combined data packet to a second proxy associated with the second computing device.
