Abstract

Techniques described and suggested herein include implementations of caches and scalers to handle data storage requests, and storage event status requests associated with data storage requests, in a scalable fashion. For example, a data storage system, such as a data storage system implemented by a computing resource service provider in connection with providing an archival storage service or other data storage service, may be implemented to maintain a consistent response time and backend capability for incoming data storage requests, which may be a component of ensuring a consistent customer experience for customers of an associated service, with little or no regard to peaky or high data storage request rates observed by the implementing data storage system.
