Abstract: When an operation request of a file is made, a first storage system performs an operation of the file stored in the first storage system on the basis of the operation request, describes, in an operation log, a counter value of a management information file, associated with the file on which the operation is to be performed, together with operation content with respect to the file, replies to the operation request, and updates the counter value of the management information file when the file stored in the first storage system is transferred to a second storage system.

Abstract: A computer system includes a NoSQL/SQL cluster and a distributed storage. In order to make storage target data redundant, a compute node in the NoSQL/SQL cluster instructs other compute nodes in the NoSQL/SQL cluster to write the storage target data into the distributed storage. As regards a file containing the storage target data, the compute node in the NoSQL/SQL cluster deduplicates data in storage apparatuses of a plurality of storage nodes in the distributed storage. The distributed storage performs erasure coding to store a file of the storage target data newly found to be duplicate in deduplication and to store a file of the storage target data not deduplicated in deduplication.

Abstract: To make it possible to prefetch data generated in another site. A file/object storage generates prefetch recommendation information regarding data stored in the file/object storage itself, on the basis of a data read request from a client or a file/object storage in another site, and transmits the prefetch recommendation information to the file/object storage in the other site. The file/object storage that has received the prefetch recommendation information generates a prefetch request on the basis of the prefetch recommendation information, acquires the data indicated by the prefetch recommendation information from the storage equipment in the site in which the data is stored, through the prefetch request, and stores the acquired data.

The CPU is configured to: receive target performance information by the application; determine a required performance which is a distributed data store performance required for achieving a performance to be specified by the target performance information based on the application performance model; determine a hardware resource amount required for achieving the required performance based on the data store performance model; and set the determined resource amount to be allocated to the distributed data store.

Abstract: In order to quickly recover a management information file, an Edge file storage stores user files and a management information file that manages management states of the user files in the Edge file storage. The Edge file storage manages operation logs indicating operation contents concerning user files accepted by nodes in association with the respective nodes. The Edge file storage extracts operation logs for a user file associated with a targeted management information file as a management information file stored in a failed node from the operation logs corresponding to the nodes. The Edge file storage aggregates operation logs that are extracted from the operation logs corresponding to the nodes and are used for the user file associated with the targeted management information file. The Edge file storage recovers the targeted management information file based on the aggregated operation log.
