Intelligent Data Management in Object-based Storage Device

Abstract

The performance of the whole file system depends on how managing the system’s components well. Consequently, designing intelligent object will catch the fancy of most researchers. Furthermore, the intelligence of OSD (Object-based Storage Devices) depends on the object intelligence. Therefore, space allocation in OSD is strongly connected with this special object. As a nature of OSD, objects are allocated on disk continuously. But, whenever, insufficient space is in current OSD, objects also are needed to place in scattering manner among the OSD Cluster. In this paper, specific intelligent object and component object are combined to work for efficient data allocation which satisfies one of the features: intelligent space management in the storage layer on OSD. And the proposed object work well for space allocation scheme using simple mathematical logic and the result is stored using doubly linked list. The goal is to manage system free resources in predefined style for efficient space collection and fast allocation for the incoming object.
