Abstract

A storage engine may obtain one or more object access properties of an object to be received, and determine a type of storage device that is suitable or desirable for storing the object from among different types of storage devices based at least in part on the one or more object access properties of the object to be received. In response to determining the type of storage device, the storage engine may allocate a storage device of such type for the object. The storage engine may then receive the object, and store the object into the allocated storage device.
