Patent 10437470 was granted and assigned to Amazon on October, 2019 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
In distributed processing frameworks, compute instance and cluster failure can occur due to a master node running out of disk space as a result of file system logs. An application employs a disk space manager to detect and manage available disk space based on a set of configurable directories. The disk space manager prevents a compute instance from reaching a threshold of capacity due to improper or malfunctioning component logging.
