Abstract
Example distributed object storage systems and methods provide ordered parallel replication of data object parts. Batch lists of data objects that identify data parts for replication are generated. Available replication engines are identified and the data parts are sorted according to a predetermined order, such as largest to smallest by part size, to create an ordered list. The data parts are then sequentially assigned to the available replication engines based on the ordered list of data parts for parallel processing of replication commands. Initiate-multipart commands may be executed before the data parts are processed and complete-multipart commands may be executed after the data parts are processed.
