  • Publication number: 20190250836
    Abstract: Embodiment of the present application disclose data storage, data reading, and data cleaning methods and devices, and a cloud storage system. Storage blocks of storage nodes are grouped into resource pools. The data is stored, read, and cleaned in units of resource pools, thereby reducing the workload of management. In particular, the method includes: for each resource pool, determining a first number of occupied storage blocks in the resource pool (S401); determining whether the first number meets a preset data cleaning condition (S402); if so, sending a data cleaning instruction to a storage node where each occupied second storage block in the resource pool is located, such that the storage node cleans the data stored on the second storage block in the storage node (S403). That is to say, the management node determines the number of occupied storage blocks of a resource pool. When the number meets a preset data cleaning condition, the data in the storage block is cleaned.
