Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing data transfer systems face risks such as network failures and data deletion before scheduled push transfers, making it advantageous to initiate a pull transfer before the scheduled date, but also risking data loss.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for determining when to initiate a pull transfer of accumulated data prior to a scheduled push transfer, using a resource-transfer modifier and total-transfer modifier to adjust the transfer amount, and providing a client portal for confirmation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If a pull transfer is initiated prior to the scheduled push transfer date, then data availability and processing yield are improved, but data loss risk increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedata processing yieldVSAvoiddata loss risk

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by calculating the accumulated data transfer amount in advance and enabling the transferee to initiate a pull transfer before the scheduled push transfer date. This allows data to be transferred early while still maintaining control over the transfer process and minimizing risks through informed decision-making based on predicted amounts.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If data transfer is scheduled for future date, then transfer efficiency is improved, but data availability is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetransfer efficiencyVSAvoiddata availability time

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces dynamic flexibility to the transfer schedule by allowing the transferee to initiate a pull transfer at any time before the scheduled push transfer date. This dynamic approach enables early data access when needed while maintaining the option to wait for the scheduled transfer, thus optimizing both efficiency and availability based on real-time requirements.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

3Loss of time

If pull transfer is used to access data early, then data availability is improved, but transfer accuracy decreases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedata availability timeVSAvoidtransfer accuracy

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of timeVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback mechanisms by calculating and providing the accumulated data transfer amount to the transferee before initiating a pull transfer. This feedback allows the transferee to make informed decisions about whether to proceed with the early transfer, based on the predicted amount and their specific needs, thereby improving both timing accuracy and decision precision.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

Systems and methods of initiating a transfer of a quantity of data are described. An accumulated data transfer amount for a periodic data transfer scheduled to be pushed to a primary storage location at a future date is determined. A transfer instruction directs a transfer amount from the accumulated-data transfer amount to a secondary storage location. A pull transfer of the transfer amount is initiated prior to the scheduled push transfer directly to the secondary storage location bypassing the primary storage location.
