  • KEY-VALUE STORE AND FILE SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20240086362
    Abstract: A key-value store and a file system are integrated together to provide improved operations. The key-value store can include a log engine, a hash engine, a sorting engine, and a garbage collection manager. The features of the key-value store can be configured to reduce the number of I/O operations involving the file system, thereby improving read efficiency, reducing write latency, and reducing write amplification issues inherent in the combined key-value store and file system.

  • EFFICIENT APPEND-ONLY FILE SYSTEM FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE KEY-VALUE STORES
    Publication number: 20240028566
    Abstract: A file system particular for use with key-value stores is provided. The file system can operate in a user space instead of a kernel space. The file system can be an append-only file system. The file system can support use of solid state drives (SSDs) for storage, including zoned SSDs. The file system can include a file manager, a metadata manager, a task scheduler, a space allocator, and a collaborator for collaborating with a key-value store.
