Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for augmenting storage functionality using emulation of storage characteristics are disclosed. An access request for a data set is received. The access request is formatted according to a first protocol associated with a first data store, and the first data store is associated with first storage characteristics. The access request is translated into a translated access request. The translated access request is formatted according to a second protocol associated with a second data store, and the second data store is associated with second storage characteristics differing at least in part from the first storage characteristics. The translated access request is sent to the second data store. The translated access request is performed by the second data store on the data set using emulation of one or more of the first storage characteristics not included in the second storage characteristics.
