Integrien Files Patents for New Integrity Management Technology
5/24/07 – Irvine-based Integrien, which provides integrity management solutions, has announced the filing of three patents for new technology that addresses the measurement and management of distributed, interdependent systems in order to predict and prevent failures.
The company says these patent-pending methods are key to its competitive advantage and enable users of its Alive integrity management software to predict and prevent service slowdowns or outages before they impact the business.
Integrien says the first patent-pending technology, “System and Method for Generating and Using Fingerprints for Integrity Management,” relates to Integrien Alive’s Problem Fingerprint technology. A Problem Fingerprint is a capture of the time series of abnormal events building up to a class of distributed application problems, which according to Integrien, provides an IT support team with a trail of application-specific evidence needed to determine resolution rapidly for the first occurrence of a problem and captures it for future reference.
The second patent filed, according to the company, titled “Self-Learning Integrity Management System and Related Methods,” covers Integrien’s overall capability to learn automatically what is normal in an enterprise’s IT infrastructure and analyze events in real-time to automatically identify potential problem areas.
Integrien says it also filed for a patent for the “Non-Parametric Method for Determination of Anomalous Event States in Complex Systems Exhibiting Non-Stationarity,” which it says is a method for determining out of normal behavior while simultaneously resolving issues with non-stationarity and data churn of network type data.
The company, which has a host of strategic partnerships with leading vendors, was recently awarded a High Tech Innovation Award from the AeA Orange County and Inland Empire Council.
