Abstract: Data is replicated between primary and secondary storage systems using a data pulling process or a log shipping process. If data is to be replicated through the log shipping process, a transaction and its associated data get stored in a transaction log in the secondary storage system. Subsequently, when the transaction gets executed, actual data gets persisted from the transaction log to a data log in the secondary storage system. If the data is to be replicated through the data pulling process, the transaction is stored in the transaction log. However, the associated data for the transaction is retrieved from the first primary storage system and stored directly in the data log in the secondary system.

Abstract: A distributed storage system includes multiple partitions. A block received for storage is striped across the partitions if it meets predetermined criteria. Multiple tables are maintained for indexing the blocks and the subblocks of blocks that are partitioned. The tables for the subblocks and the tables for the corresponding blocks of the subblocks are updated to include metadata for the subblocks for retrieving the subblocks in response to a request for a corresponding stored block.

Abstract: In various embodiments, methods and systems for implementing multiple transaction logs in a distributed storage system are provided. A log stream component detects performance metrics of a plurality of log streams. The performance metrics are associated with requests from partitions in the distributed storage system. A transaction component receives a request to execute a transaction using a log stream. The request is received from a partition of the distributed storage system. The performance metrics of the plurality of log streams can be referenced, where the performance metrics indicate a performance capacity of a selected log stream to process the request. A log stream for executing the transaction is determined based on the performance capacity. The log stream selected can also factor request attributes of the request. The transaction component communicates the request to be executed, using the log stream to perform the transaction.
