Abstract
A system receives a request to store a replica of a data object into any cloud storage node associated with an attribute, and then identifies a redundancy number associated with the data object. The system identifies a number of cloud storage nodes that are associated with the attribute. If the identified number of cloud storage nodes is greater than the redundancy number, the system identifies the redundancy number of cloud storage nodes as a subset of the number of cloud storage nodes, based on the data object and a unique identifier associated with each of the number of cloud storage nodes. The system stores the redundancy number of replicas into the corresponding redundancy number of cloud storage nodes.
