  • Patent number: 10936729
    Abstract: A data storage service redundantly stores data and keys used to encrypt the data. Data objects are encrypted with first cryptographic keys. The first cryptographic keys are encrypted by second cryptographic keys. The first cryptographic keys and second cryptographic keys are redundantly stored in a data storage system to enable access of the data objects, such as to respond to requests to retrieve the data objects. The second cryptographic keys may be encrypted by third keys and redundantly stored in the event access to a second cryptographic key is lost.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 5, 2018
    Date of Patent: March 2, 2021
    Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.

  • Patent number: 9223789
    Abstract: Ranges of data stored within archived data may be retrieved according to a predefined hash tree schema. A retrieval request for a range of one or more data chunks of an archived data object stored in archival data store may be retrieved. In response, the requested range of the archived data object may be determined to be tree-hash aligned. In response to determining that the requested range is tree-hash aligned, a retrieval job may be initiated to obtain the range of one or more data chunks and to stage the one or more data chunks for download. A download request may for one or more of the obtained and staged data chunks, and if determined to be tree-hash aligned, a tree hash root node may be sent to the requesting client in addition to the requested data.
