Abstract
A data storage system includes a first storage layer, a second storage layer, an I/O manager, and a data organizer. The first storage layer utilizes a first type of data storage device. The first storage layer includes (i) a first data bucket that includes first data having a first data attribute, the first data bucket including a first data limit, and (ii) a second data bucket. The second storage layer utilizes a second type of data storage device. The I/O manager receives a data write request from the user and directs the data write request to the first storage layer. The data organizer (a) determines whether data in the data write request has the first data attribute; and (b) stores the data in the data write request in at least one of the first data bucket and the second data bucket if the data in the data write request has the first data attribute. When a volume of data in the first data bucket reaches the first data limit, the data organizer moves the volume of data in the first data bucket from the first storage layer to the second storage layer.
