Abstract
The subject disclosure relates to storage. An example method includes receiving an input/output (I/O) request based on a protocol related to a first type of storage medium. The method further includes determining a namespace among a plurality of namespaces that is associated with the I/O request. The method further includes determining a binary file corresponding to the determined namespace based on a mapping relationship. The method further includes reading from and/or writing to a second type of storage medium based on the determined binary file, the second type being different from the first type. In this manner, a unified underlying storage implementation with software definition capabilities is provided, which enables different types of storage media to be operated as namespaces, thereby enabling the deployment of a storage system to adapt to more platforms and scenarios.
