Abstract: A logical storage layer for shared storage systems interposes between address ranges of the shards and the storage devices on which the shards are stored. The shards may be logically addressed using a plurality of addressable zones, to which the storage devices are independently mapped. Data requests related to a given piece of data associated with a shard may involve multiple storage devices, and vice versa.

Abstract: A switching device is implemented in a network-attachable data transfer device to provide data storage access to other such devices. In some embodiments, network-attachable data transfer devices are arranged in a clustered configuration to provide various computational and storage services. When one or more devices of the cluster fails, various implementations associated with the switching device, via an external data interface, provide operational mitigation, optimized data recovery, and efficient reinstatement of normal operation of the cluster.

Abstract: Techniques for incrementally updating grid encoding data storage systems are described herein. A grid of shards with a plurality of virtual shards is created where each virtual shard is a representation of a shard in the grid of shards that is not backed by a data storage device and where each shard of the grid of shards has an index value. Data is then stored in the grid of shards by updating a shard to store the data and by also updating a second shard based on a set of shards with the same index value as the shard updated to store the data.

Abstract: Techniques described and suggested herein include systems and methods for storing, indexing, and retrieving original data of data archives on data storage systems using redundancy coding techniques. For example, redundancy codes, such as erasure codes, may be applied to archives (such as those received from a customer of a computing resource service provider) so as allow the storage of original data of the individual archives available on a minimum of volumes, such as those of a data storage system, while retaining availability, durability, and other guarantees imparted by the application of the redundancy code. Sparse indexing techniques may be implemented so as to reduce the footprint of indexes used to locate the original data, once stored.

Abstract: A data center may include a tape library rack module along with rack computer systems. The rack computer systems may be configured to provide computing capacity within a data center environment. In some embodiments, the tape library rack module may include an enclosure encompassing an interior of the tape library rack module, a rack within the interior, and a tape library unit mounted on the rack. The tape library rack unit may include tape cartridges configured to store data within a tape environment that is different than the data center environment. The tape library rack unit may be within a portion of the interior that is enclosed such that it is environmentally isolated from the data center environment. In some examples, the tape library rack module may include a cooling unit and/or a humidifier unit, which may provide the tape environment to the environmentally isolated portion of the interior of the tape library rack module.

CPC classification number: G06F11/14 , G06F17/30584
Abstract: A data storage service distributes a plurality of data fragments corresponding to a data object among one or more data storage host groupings in a manner that avoids a possibility of correlated loss of multiple data fragments by consolidation of data of a data storage host grouping onto a single data storage host. The data storage service selects a data storage host grouping and determines an amount of used capacity for the selected data storage host grouping. If the selected grouping satisfies an emptiness threshold, the data storage service selects a data storage host from the grouping and consolidates one or more data sets of the grouping onto the selected data storage host. Subsequently, the data storage service updates metadata for each data storage host of the selected data storage host grouping to specify a location of data stored therein.

Abstract: Erasure encoded fragments are generated by an erasure encoding scheme, represented by an erasure encoding matrix, operating on a data file. A new erasure encoded fragment may be generated from previously-generated erasure encoded fragments without reconstructing the original data file. Available and valid erasure encoded fragments are identified and a set of those fragments is selected. A composite encoding matrix is generated based upon the selected fragments and the fragment specified to be generated. The composite matrix is applied to the selected fragments to produce a plurality of partial sums. The partial sums are then combined to generate the specified fragment. The partial sums may be produced by different devices so as to distribute the computational workload and/or to reduce network traffic. The integrity of a generated fragment may be verified by generating the specified fragment twice, using two different sets of fragments, and then comparing the two results.

Abstract: Techniques for incrementally increasing media size in data storage systems using grid encoded data storage techniques are described herein. A grid of shards is created where each shard of the grid of shards has a first index, a second index and each shard also has an associated storage device configured with a storage capacity that is large enough to store the largest set of data on a shard. Upon determining to replace the storage devices of the grid with storage devices that have a different storage capacity, the storage devices can be incrementally replaced within the grid by first padding each shard of the grid of shards with a set of data values, replacing a data shard storage device with a device of the different storage capacity, and replacing a set of derived shard storage devices with devices of the different storage capacity.
