Retained data handling at differentiated response times
First Claim
1. A method for handling response times in a communication system, the communication system comprising an authorized organization and at least one data retention system having a plurality of memory storage spaces, each of the plurality of memory storage spaces comprising retained data, wherein the retained data in each of the plurality of memory storage spaces is different from retained data in the other memory storage spaces of the plurality of memory storage spaces, the method comprising:
- receiving a request for the retained data from the authorized organization to the at least one data retention system, the request comprising a specified data type and a retention time range, wherein the retention time range is a time range for which the retained data is requested by the authorized organization;
dividing, in the at least one data retention system, the received retention time range into a plurality of time segments corresponding to the plurality of memory storage spaces, wherein each of the plurality of memory storage spaces has a different response time, wherein the division of the received retention time range into the plurality of time segments is based on corresponding response times of each memory storage space of the plurality of memory storage spaces for delivering the retained data, and wherein a response time of a corresponding memory storage space is time elapsed between a time when the retained data is fetched from the corresponding memory storage space and a time when the retained data is delivered from the corresponding memory storage space to the authorized organization; and
delivering an acknowledge message from the at least one data retention system to the authorized organization, the acknowledge message comprising estimated response time information and identification information corresponding to the plurality of time segments, wherein the estimated response time information is information related to the response time of the corresponding memory storage space.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for handling response times in a communication system comprising at least one data retention system having at least one storage space for retained data. The at least one storage space has a defined response time (high, medium, low) for delivering retained data. The method comprises the following steps: —Receiving a request for retained data from an authorized organization to the at least one data retention system, which request comprises a specified data type and a retention time range —Dividing in the at least one data retention system, the received retention time range into at least one time segment each corresponding to one defined response time —Delivering an acknowledge message from the at least one data retention system to the authorized organization, which message comprises response and identification information corresponding to the at least one divided time segment.
