Abstract
A system and computer-based method for performing a data transaction in a network storage system is provided. In an embodiment, the method includes receiving, from a client, a first data transaction request including a first data identifier associated with a first namespace protocol; determining a storage system associated with the first data identifier and associated with a second namespace protocol; determining a second data identifier associated with the first data identifier, wherein the second data identifier conforms to the second namespace protocol; and forwarding a second data transaction request including the second data identifier to the storage system based on determining an association between the second data identifier and the first data identifier, wherein the first namespace protocol and the second namespace protocol are different.
