Solution Overview

Problem

Current enterprise-scale information technology infrastructure management and search processes are inefficient due to extensive overhead in managing multiple datacenters, which hampers query processing and resource retrieval.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of an engramic indexing service that uses semantic context and natural language processing to optimize query context through mapped semantics and machine learning, enabling efficient access and management of IT infrastructure by generating query semantic fingerprints and computing similarity metrics to identify relevant datacenters.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional search and management methods are used for multiple datacenters, then comprehensive resource access is achieved, but extensive overhead and inefficiency occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequery processing efficiencyVSAvoidmanagement overhead
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates semantic fingerprints as simplified copies of complex datacenter profiles and query intents. Instead of managing full datacenter metadata and performing complex semantic matching, the system uses compact fingerprint representations that capture essential semantic characteristics, dramatically reducing management overhead while maintaining matching accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transforms the query matching problem from complex semantic analysis to simple numerical comparison by converting semantic concepts into fingerprint vectors. This parameter transformation allows efficient similarity computation using mathematical operations rather than complex linguistic processing, improving productivity while reducing operational complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Loss of time

If semantic fingerprinting and similarity computation are implemented, then query efficiency is improved, but computational overhead increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequery response timeVSAvoidcomputational resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent computes similarity metrics only between the query fingerprint and relevant datacenter fingerprints rather than performing exhaustive semantic analysis across all datacenters. This partial action approach reduces computational overhead by focusing processing only on necessary comparisons, thereby reducing energy consumption while maintaining fast response times

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent pre-computes and stores semantic fingerprints for all datacenters before query processing. This preliminary action eliminates the need for complex semantic analysis during query execution, shifting computational work to an offline phase and enabling rapid online query processing with minimal energy consumption

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
