Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for implementing augmenting storage functionality using composition are disclosed. A logical data store is determined based at least in part on storage requirements specified by a user. The logical data store comprises a composition of a plurality of storage adapters for a plurality of physical data stores including a first storage adapter for a first physical data store and a second storage adapter for a second physical data store. The first storage adapter and the second storage adapter are associated with different storage characteristics. A plurality of storage requests for the logical data store are received. Individual ones of the storage requests are routed to the first physical data store using the first storage adapter. Individual ones of the storage requests are routed to the second physical data store using the second storage adapter.
