Reference-aware application recreation in container environments
The granted patent US12056526B2 outlines a system and method for reference-aware application recreation within a container deployment environment, specifically targeting Kubernetes environments. The system comprises several modules, including a reference detection module that identifies and stores reference paths for various resource types, a resource ordering module that generates a recreation sequence ensuring that referenced resources are recreated prior to the resources that refer to them, and an application recreation module that executes the application recreation based on this sequence. Additionally, the resource ordering module performs pre- and post-recreation checks and modifications to ensure compliance with the recreation sequence.
The patent further details the capabilities of the reference detection module, which can automatically detect reference paths during startup or when new resource definitions are introduced, utilizing binary or text schema scans. It also allows for manual updates to enhance auto-detection. The resource ordering module is designed to handle scenarios where identical resources are recreated within the same namespace by updating their names and ensuring that shared resources do not conflict with applications currently utilizing them. Overall, the patent presents a structured approach to managing resource dependencies and application recreation in containerized environments, enhancing operational efficiency and reducing potential conflicts.
