DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND DATA MANAGEMENT METHOD
First Claim
1. A data management system for managing data stored in computers comprising:
- a plurality of first computers comprising first processors and first storage units; and
a second computer comprising a second processor and a second storage unit,wherein the second storage unit is configured to store a first piece of data and a plurality of second pieces of data,wherein each of the first storage units is configured to hold configuration information indicating association between the first piece of data and the plurality of second pieces of data associated by the plurality of first computers,wherein each of the first computers is configured to receive a second piece of data and register information of the received second piece of data in the configuration information,wherein each of the first computers is configured to instruct the second computer to store the received second piece of data in association with the first piece of data,wherein the second computer is configured to, in accordance with instructions from the plurality of first computers, store the plurality of second pieces of data in the second storage unit in association with the first piece of data, andwherein, each of the first computers is configured to identify a second piece of data to be acquired from the second computer based on the configuration information in acquiring the second piece of data.

Abstract
A second storage unit stores a first piece of data and second pieces of data. Each of first storage units holds configuration information indicating association between the first piece of data and the second pieces of data associated by first computers. Each of the first computers receives a second piece of data and register information of the received second piece of data in the configuration information, instructs a second computer to store the received second piece of data in association with the first piece of data, and identifies a second piece of data to be acquired from the second computer based on the configuration information in acquiring the second piece of data. The second computer, in accordance with instructions from the first computers, stores the second pieces of data in the second storage unit in association with the first piece of data.
