Abstract
Methods and systems for in-memory metadata reduction in cloud storage system are provided. According to an aspect, a method comprises receiving a first command to write a data stream to a storage device; writing the data stream into a plurality of fragments having logical addresses corresponding to physical addresses on the storage device; and generating an index for individual fragment of the plurality of fragments, the index indicating information to locate the physical addresses of the individual fragment. Individual records in the individual fragment have a same pre-set logical size and all individual records in the individual fragment are continuous, and the index indicates the information including at least: an offset value of the individual record in the individual fragment; the pre-set logical size of the individual record; and a pre-set physical size of the individual record.
