Solution Overview

Problem

The determination of the creation date of electronic records and generation of notifications associated with these records in a cloud computing environment is inefficient, leading to a reduction in notifications and resource utilization within a given period.

Innovation Solution

A computer-based method and system that utilize a lambda algorithm to determine utilization duration metrics for data stacks, retrieve metadata associated with creators, and automatically generate notifications based on these metrics, with the option to delete inactive data stacks, employing creator-specific resource-specific tags and a cloud watch rule engine.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If manual determination of creation date and notification generation is used, then flexibility and customization are maintained, but productivity and efficiency are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenotification generation efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service through automated lambda algorithms that continuously execute to determine utilization duration metrics and generate notifications without human intervention. The cloud watch rule engine automatically triggers notifications based on predetermined time periods, eliminating the need for manual tracking and notification generation while maintaining systematic control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements preliminary action by establishing cloud watch rules and lambda algorithms in advance with predetermined notification time periods. Creator-specific resource-specific tags are generated beforehand with indicative markers including start times, enabling the system to automatically calculate utilization durations and trigger notifications at appropriate intervals without real-time manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If automated lambda algorithms are implemented, then productivity and resource utilization are enhanced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource management efficiencyVSAvoidcomputational system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces cloud watch rules as an intermediary layer between resource creation and notification generation. The rules engine acts as a mediator that automatically triggers lambda algorithms based on predetermined conditions, simplifying the overall system architecture by decoupling the notification logic from direct resource management while maintaining automated functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments notification generation into discrete lambda algorithms that can be independently executed and managed. Each algorithm handles specific resource types or time periods, allowing for modular development, testing, and maintenance. This segmentation reduces complexity by breaking down the monolithic notification system into manageable, reusable components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Measurement precision

If continuous automated execution of lambda algorithms is performed, then measurement precision of utilization duration is improved, but use of energy increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveutilization duration accuracyVSAvoidcomputational energy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements periodic action by configuring cloud watch rules to trigger lambda algorithms at predetermined time intervals rather than continuously. Notification time periods are set in advance, causing the system to evaluate utilization durations only when needed, thereby maintaining measurement precision while significantly reducing computational energy consumption compared to continuous execution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action
