A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11860816B2) discloses a method for archiving data efficiently. The method involves receiving a data stream with multiple data items, defining properties for these items, creating a record manifest with metadata for the data items, and storing both the data stream and the record manifest before indexing. When a search query is received, only the relevant data item properties are indexed based on the search criteria provided, and the search query is applied to the indexed data stream to retrieve results.

The method outlined in the patent includes features such as defining data item properties like date and custodian, allowing for efficient indexing and retrieval of data based on search criteria. Additionally, the method enables the separation of data items into multiple streams based on preset criteria, with the archiving, defining, creating, and storing steps repeated for each stream. Furthermore, the method supports search queries that correspond to common data item properties across multiple stored data streams, facilitating comprehensive search results by indexing only relevant data items matching the criteria provided. Overall, the patent presents a systematic approach to data archiving and retrieval, enhancing efficiency and accuracy in managing large volumes of data.
