Abstract

The technologies described herein are generally directed toward retrieving data from streaming storage. In an embodiment, a method can include receiving an application data request that identifies application data to be retrieved from a sequence of stored data chunks that correspond to a stored stream of data. The method can further include, based on the application data request, estimating a first estimated location of the application data, with the first estimated location including an identified chunk of a sequence of chunks. Further, the method can include, based on the application data request and a characteristic of the identified chunk, retrieving, by the system, a first data block that is estimated to comprise the application data, resulting in a first retrieved data block.
