DYNAMIC NETWORK STORAGE FOR CLOUD CONSOLE SERVER

摘要

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for virtualizing mass storage using a network storage device operatively coupled to a host system. In various implementations, the network storage device and host system may collectively emulate a mass storage device for another “terminal” computing system. This emulation can be performed while utilizing the minimum possible memory of the host system, as the network storage device contains the operating system data for the host system in addition to game and user data required for the implementation of a computer application.

主权项

1. A system, comprising:
a processor, and a memory coupled to the processor; wherein the processor is configured to perform a method, the method comprising: receiving, from a remote client computing device, a user request to stream a computer application; requesting data necessary to load and/or execute the computer application from a network storage device; receiving data necessary to run the computer application from the network storage device; running the computer application using the data; and streaming an output generated by running the computer application using the data to the remote client computing device.
