Nvidia patents system to route data streams to specific software tasks
Nvidia describes a method for managing data flow in a cluster of computers. It uses agents to track data sources and route them to specific software services that need that information.
In the filing’s own words
Approaches presented herein relate to the distribution and processing of stream data in a networked computing environment. A set of streaming data sources can be identified for a given cluster of nodes and the data from those data sources can be tracked, managed, and/or routed to a number of different microservices. Stream distribution and routing (SDR) agents may be used to manage a routing table that includes an identifier for each of the data sources. The individual agents may distribute information about the sensors to individual microservices, which may determine which data streams are relevant and then initiate individual processes and functions using the relevant data streams. Output results from the individual microservices may also be assigned an identifier, which may further be used by the individual agents to route outputs toward their particular microservices, which may then use the outputs from other microservices within their own workstreams.
What exactly they claim (claim 1)
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: assigning an identifier to one or more data sources, the identifier of the one or more data sources being made available via a control bus; receiving a request to connect a data stream associated, with a data source of the one or more data sources with an available workload object of a plurality of workload objects that is communicatively coupled with the control bus; obtaining the identifier of the one or more data sources and an identifier associated with a particular workload object; populating a routing table with the identifier of the one or more data sources and the identifier associated with the particular workload object; performing a computing operation, using the data stream, by the particular workload object; and updating the routing table with a second identifier corresponding to a result generated by the particular workload object.
