    Abstract: Servicing I/O operations in a cloud-based storage system, including: receiving, by the cloud-based storage system, a request to write data to the cloud-based storage system; storing, in solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system, the data; storing, in object storage of the cloud-based storage system, the data; detecting that at least some portion of the solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system has become unavailable; identifying data that was stored in the portion of the solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system that has become unavailable; retrieving, from object storage of the cloud-based storage system, the data that was stored in the portion of the solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system that has become unavailable; and storing, in solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system, the retrieved data.

    Abstract: Synchronously replicating a dataset across cloud-based storage systems, including adding a cloud-based storage system to a set of storage systems that the dataset is synchronously replicated across, where access operations are applied to the dataset equivalently through all storage systems in the set, all storage systems in the set store a separate copy of the dataset, and operations to modify the dataset performed and completed through any of the storage systems in the set are reflected in access operations to read the dataset, the cloud-based storage system including one or more cloud computing instances executing a storage controller application, a virtual drive layer that includes one or more cloud computing instances with local storage for storing at least a portion of the dataset as block data, and an object storage layer for storing at least a portion of the dataset as object data.

    Abstract: A cloud-based storage system contained in a cloud computing environment, the cloud-based storage system including: determining, at the cloud-based storage system and in response to a request for data, that the data previously stored within one or more virtual instances of a virtual instance layer is no longer stored within the one or more virtual instances; generating, within the virtual instance layer, a quantity of virtual instances to receive data restored from a cloud-based storage layer of the cloud-based storage system; and restoring, into the quantity of virtual instances at the virtual instance layer, data from the cloud-based storage layer of the cloud-based storage system.

    Abstract: A system and method for efficiently storing data in a storage system. A data storage subsystem includes multiple data storage locations on multiple storage devices in addition to at least one mapping table. A data storage controller determines whether data to store in the storage subsystem has one or more patterns of data intermingled with non-pattern data within an allocated block. Rather than store the one or more pattern on the storage devices, the controller stores information in a header on the storage devices. The information includes at least an offset for the first instance of a pattern, a pattern length, and an identification of the pattern. The data may be reconstructed for a corresponding read request from the information stored in the header.
