Monitoring Record Management for Storage Memory Optimization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing monitoring record management systems face challenges in efficiently managing large numbers of monitoring records in storage systems, leading to memory capacity issues and difficulties in accurately tracking the life cycle of data, especially as the number of chunks increases, making it hard to meet user requirements.
Innovation Solution
A method and device that allow for the combination of monitoring records based on preset thresholds, where monitoring records with similar monitoring parameter differences are combined into a single record, reducing memory occupancy and enhancing monitoring granularity, allowing for more efficient storage and analysis of data life cycles.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If monitoring records are stored for each chunk individually, then monitoring precision is improved, but memory capacity is exceeded
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple monitoring records that meet preset threshold conditions into a single monitoring record. When chunks have similar monitoring parameters (within the threshold), their individual records are merged, reducing the total number of records stored in memory while maintaining effective monitoring capability.
2Quantity of substance
If the number of chunks increases, then storage capacity is improved, but monitoring record management becomes complex
Solution Approach 1:
As the number of chunks increases, the patent automatically merges monitoring records based on threshold comparisons. This dynamic merging process reduces the number of individual records that need to be managed, thereby controlling system complexity even as storage capacity scales up.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces threshold parameters that control when merging occurs. By adjusting these parameters, the system can adapt to different scales of operation, managing complexity through parameter-based control rather than structural changes.
3Quantity of substance
If monitoring granularity is reduced by combining records, then memory usage is reduced, but monitoring detail is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses threshold parameters to control the merging process. By setting appropriate thresholds, the system balances memory usage and monitoring detail - only merging records that are sufficiently similar, thereby preserving necessary monitoring granularity while reducing memory consumption.

AI summary
The present invention provides a monitoring record management technology, which is used to manage a monitoring record stored in a memory, where the monitoring record is used to monitor a chunk in a storage, and by reading at least one monitoring parameter from each monitoring record in the memory, monitoring records between which a monitoring parameter meets a threshold are combined or split. After the monitoring record management technology provided in the present invention is applied, the occupancy of the memory can be reduced or the accuracy of the monitoring record can be improved.
