Parallel storage system with multi-tier hardware accelerated partitioned key-value storage

摘要

Parallel storage systems are provided with a multi-tier hardware accelerated partitioned key-value store. A distributed storage system for storing a partitioned key-value store comprises at least one compute node comprising a partitioned key-value store server; the partitioned key-value store server being configured to store key-value data on at least one hardware accelerated key-value store. The hardware accelerated key-value store comprises, for example, a flash-based hardware accelerated key-value store and/or a disk-based hardware accelerated key-value store. The compute nodes optionally further comprise a local key value store for generating one or more of read and write commands for the flash-based hardware accelerated key-value store and/or the disk-based hardware accelerated key-value store. The partitioned key-value store servers optionally provide an interface between one or more local key-value stores and the flash-based hardware accelerated key-value store and/or the disk-based hardware accelerated key-value store.
