Abstract

A key-value engine of a storage system may perform a restart recovery after a system failure. The key-value engine may read a metadata log to locate a latest system checkpoint, and load a page mapping table from the latest system checkpoint. The key-value engine may replay to apply changes to the page mapping table from a system transaction log starting from a system transaction replay starting point. The key-value engine may further form one or more read-only replicas using an underlying file stream opened in a read-only mode during the recovery after the system failure to further facilitate fast recovery and provide fast response to user transactions that conduct read only transactions after the system failure.
