Patent ID: 10778806

Abstract:
The disclosure is directed to sandboxing data shards in a host server. A shard can store a subset of data associated with an application, and provide read and/or write services to various application services. In a multi-tenant architecture, different application services can share common hardware of a multi-tenant system to improve hardware utilization and efficiency. For example, shards associated with various application services are hosted by a common host server. Accessing of a shard, e.g., by an application service, consumes resources of the host server. A bug or a spike in the usage of the host server by one application service can impact other application services with which the host server is shared. To reduce or eliminate this problem, the shards will be sandboxed in the host server, which can include reserving resources, e.g., computing, networking and/or storage resources, for each of the shards.
