Abstract:
Systems and methods for quickly resolving storage area commands from packet addresses are presented. Clients exchange packets comprising addresses and payloads with physical storage areas that have controllers using a stateless protocol. Modules use the addresses in addition to payloads to derive commands that are understandable by the controller. Furthermore, the neither the module nor the controller require use of a file system to interact with the physical storage area. Modules can derive the storage area commands through resolving a context associated with physical storage area. In some embodiments, modules split addresses into portions that can be used as indices into context lookup tables. In other embodiments, modules can employ variants to router address lookup algorithms to quickly resolve storage area commands.
