State management and storage with policy enforcement in a distributed cloud computing network

摘要

A compute server of a distributed cloud computing network receives a request for an object that is to be handled by an object worker, where the object worker includes a single instantiation of a piece of code that solely controls reading/writing to the object. Policies are accessed that are applicable for processing the object. If the policies do not allow the object worker to be instantiated on the compute server, the object worker will not be instantiated and the request will not be processed at that compute server. If the policies allow the object worker to be instantiated on the compute server, the object worker is instantiated and the request is processed.
