Managed System Frame Deployment and Security
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Managing computing systems to provide desired computer-implemented services is challenging due to the complexity of identifying appropriate hardware and software configurations, and the need for manual intervention in deployment and management, which can lead to service interruptions and increased costs.
Innovation Solution
A subscription-based model using a subscription management service that automatically configures and deploys managed systems by obtaining user requirements, guiding deployment to optimal frame units, and securing frame units to prevent interference and overheating, thereby reducing cognitive burden and ensuring continuous service delivery.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual intervention is used in deployment and management, then flexibility and control are improved, but service interruptions increase and costs increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements self-service through automated deployment agents that autonomously configure and deploy computing systems without manual intervention. The agents automatically obtain requirements, select appropriate hardware-software configurations, and deploy systems to optimal frame units, eliminating the need for continuous manual control while ensuring service continuity through automated monitoring and management.
2Productivity
If automated deployment is implemented, then service interruptions are reduced and productivity is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces deployment agents as intermediary components that manage the complexity of automated deployment. These agents act as mediators between the subscription management service and the computing systems, handling configuration decisions, resource allocation, and deployment operations. By centralizing complex logic in the agents, the system achieves high productivity while isolating complexity from users and simplifying the overall architecture.
3Ease of operation
If frame units are left unsecured, then ease of deployment is improved, but harmful factors such as interference and overheating increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies preliminary action by pre-selecting optimal frame units for deployment based on environmental conditions, thermal characteristics, and interference patterns before placing computing systems. The subscription management service analyzes frame unit properties in advance and makes intelligent placement decisions, preventing overheating and interference issues before they occur while maintaining ease of deployment through automated selection and configuration.
Data Source
AI summary
Methods, systems, and devices for providing computer implemented services using managed systems are disclosed. To provide the computer implemented services, the managed systems may be deployed to a location and operate in a predetermined manner conducive to, for example, execution of applications that provide the computer implemented services. When deployed to a location, the managed systems may be housed in a managed system frame. The managed system frames may include systems to guide placement of managed system in preferred frame units, remotely identify occupancy of the frame units, and/or the frame units against unexpected removals of or insertion of devices in the frame units.
