Abstract
A storage segment server environment that includes storage segment server(s) that cover a contiguous address space of data. The storage segment server has storage segments that are contiguous and that matches the address space of a respective of storage segments in the cloud store service. Thus, a read of the contiguous address spaces of the data from the cloud store service may instead be handled as a single read of the contiguous address space of the storage segment server. Each storage segment server(s) may be assigned to a range within the total contiguous address space of the data. Each storage segment server(s) includes a respective storage segment write component that is configured to perform write operations to storage segments in the respective storage segment server. Each storage segment server(s) also includes a respective cloud storage write component that initiates corresponding write operations to the cloud store service.
