Abstract

An example system may include a first rack including a first access node and a second rack including a second access node and a storage node. The first and second racks are included within a multi-rack distributed storage system. The first access node is configured to receive over a connection with a client a first request for an object data. The connection with the client is uniquely identified by a connection ID independent of source and destination addresses and ports. The first access node is further configured to determine object data locality details of the object data and relocate the connection to the second access node in the second rack when the object data locality details of the object data indicate the object data is located within the second rack.
