GROUPING KEY VALUE OBJECT IOs TO IMPROVE IO PERFORMANCE FOR KEY-VALUE STORAGE DEVICES

A non-transitory computer readable medium implemented on a system for completing object IOs, the non-transitory computer readable medium having computer code that, when executed on a processor, implements a method of completing object IOs, the method comprising:

• receiving a first set of object IOs for a target storage device;
• dispatching the first set of object IOs to a first buffer of a first zone, the first buffer being configured to function as a first log buffer;
• concatenating the first set of object IOs to form a first object group in the first buffer;
• logging the first object group to a log device;
• modifying a function of the first buffer from the first log buffer to a first flush buffer;
• and
• transferring the first object group to the target storage device.

A system for completing object IOs, the system comprising a log device, a target storage device, and a memory cache, wherein the system is configured to:

• receive a first set of object IOs for the target storage device;
• dispatch the first set of object IOs to a first buffer of a first zone, the first buffer being configured to function as a first log buffer;
• concatenate the first set of object IOs to form a first object group in the first buffer;
• log the first object group to the log device;
• modify a function of the first buffer from the first log buffer to a first flush buffer;
• and
• transfer the first object group to the target storage device.
