Data Distribution System Using Conditional Storage Routing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional data distribution systems are inflexible, as they cannot easily change distribution settings and are dependent on the processing status of the person in charge, limiting the ability to set or modify distribution destinations.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system that transfers data to designated storage locations based on distribution settings information, allowing for flexible changes in distribution destinations and enabling easy management of data distribution through cloud storage, with features like user authentication, device authentication, and workflow applications.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If distribution settings are changed frequently to adapt to different data distribution needs, then adaptability is improved, but system complexity increases due to frequent configuration changes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent pre-establishes multiple distribution destination groups (first group with first storage device, second group with second storage device) in advance. When data is received, the system automatically selects the appropriate group based on predetermined conditions without requiring administrators to modify system settings. This preliminary configuration enables flexible adaptation to different distribution scenarios while maintaining stable system settings.
2Ease of operation
If distribution settings are made flexible and changeable, then ease of operation is improved, but reliability may worsen due to potential configuration errors
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a condition-based automatic selection mechanism that provides feedback control for data distribution. The system continuously monitors data characteristics and automatically selects the appropriate distribution destination group based on predetermined conditions, eliminating manual configuration errors while maintaining operational flexibility. This automated feedback loop ensures reliable data distribution without requiring frequent manual settings changes.
Data Source
AI summary
An information processing system, a data transfer method, and a recording medium. The information processing system transfers data to storage that is a transfer destination and in response to a data transfer request from a device, the information processing system transfers the data with reference to distribution settings information that designates a storage location of the data in the storage.
