US 11,029,855 B1 · Containerized storage stream microservice

Abstract

A containerized stream microservice is described. The containerized stream microservice is configured to provide the functionality of volume presentation along with all related interactions including the receipt and processing of IO requests and related services. The containerized stream microservice preferably implements stream metadata in the management of storage operations, and interacts with a store to provide underlying data storage. The store, which may also be referred to as a data store, is where underlying data is stored in a persistent manner. In one example, the store is an object store.

Dependent claims

A method for data representation comprising:

receiving write transactions directed to a given volume;
and
retaining stream metadata corresponding to the write transactions, the stream metadata identifying a sequence of the write transactions according to the order in which the write transactions are received for the given volume, and identifying respective location information for each of the write transactions, the location information including object identifiers respectively corresponding to the write transactions, and the location information including offsets respectively corresponding to each of the write transactions.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
