Abstract: Disclosed is a method, apparatus, and system for a method for enforcing namespace-specific semantics based on object operations, the method comprising: detecting an operation performed on an object of a data storage system in a namespace associated with the object; determining whether additional operations on a tagset associated with the object are mandated by one or more semantics that are specific to the namespace based on the operation, a persona of the object in the namespace, and the one or more semantics; and in response to determining that additional operations are mandated by the one or more semantics, performing the additional operations mandated by the one or more semantics on the tagset.

Abstract: In various embodiments, methods and systems for implementing distributed data object management are provided. The distributed data object management system includes a local metadata-consensus information store and one or more remote metadata-consensus information stores for metadata-consensus information and a local data store and one or more remote data stores for erasure coded fragments. For a write operation, corresponding metadata writes and data writes are performed in parallel using a metadata write path and a data write path, respectively, when writing to the local metadata-consensus information store and the one or more remote metadata-consensus information stores and the local data store and the one or more remote data stores. And, for a read operation, corresponding metadata reads and data reads are performed in parallel using a metadata read path and a data read path, respectively, when reading from the metadata-consensus information stores and the data stores.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments relate to a computer system for performing a map reduce sequence. Nodes therein include at least one processor and memory and are divided into at least mapper and reducer nodes. Each mapper node executes a map function on input to generate intermediate output elements. Each said intermediate output element includes a first key-value pair. Each element key includes associated map and reduce task identifiers. Each element value includes substantive data, organized as another key-value pair. The intermediate output elements are stored to memory. Each reducer node: retrieves at least intermediate output element values from the memory of a given mapper node, using specified map and reduce task identifiers; stores the retrieved element values to its memory; executes a reduce function on the retrieved element values, in order; and outputs a result from the reduce function for the map reduce sequence. Disk operations advantageously are reduced or eliminated.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, a hybrid call is introduced. Local data is used to immediately display some search results. The search for local data may be initiated at the same time as a search for non-local data (e.g., server data). A preset number of results from the local data may be displayed first, while remaining results from non-local data may be displayed when such results are returned over the network. By using local data to initially return search results, the time for the searcher to see results is reduced to virtually nothing. Additionally, the local results are typically more relevant to navigational searches than traditional type ahead results.

Abstract: Technologies for injecting dynamic content into microblogging posts are described, where dynamic content may be updated each time a post or feed is fetched or refreshed. A user of may add a placeholder for dynamic content when composing a post. The placeholder indicates a data provider and a data parameter. When the post is published, the data provider and data parameter are stored along with the other content of the post. When the post is requested, every placeholder in the post is parsed and content is obtained for every placeholder by passing the data parameter to the data provider. The placeholder is replaced with the data returned by the data provider and the post is provided to the requesting entity including the obtained data in place of the placeholder.

Abstract: An enterprise may use file level and block level storage for operational access to reap the performance benefits, and use object storage for back-up storage and scale out. Data of objects and objects themselves can be organized to allow for efficient storage management operations, including storage snapshot operations and deduplication operations. A root file container can be represented in object storage with a metadata object (“file container object”) and child file container can be represented in object storage with a metadata object (“file group object”). Each file can be represented in object storage with a metadata object that indicates the data units of the file depending upon the storage technology hosting the file (e.g., a file data block in file level storage). The data units of the file can be represented in object storage as elements of a data object.
