Cloud / Data Center

Cloud and data center innovations span client-server architectures, virtualization, container orchestration frameworks like Kubernetes, and hardware-software co-design for hyperscale workloads. Patentable advances often include hypervisors and VM migration, confidential computing, workload scheduling, multi-tenant isolation, secure enclave trust architectures, and network function virtualization (NFV). Other focus areas involve scalable storage and memory subsystems, liquid and immersion cooling, software-defined networking (SDN), edge computing platforms, and high-speed interconnects such as optical and chiplet-based fabrics. Alliance IP’s cloud and data center patent attorneys have particular strength in this sector, having managed large patent portfolios in-house and drafted numerous patents covering the technologies that power global cloud platforms and enterprise data centers.
