Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention includes a method for routing a data object, comprising a sequence of data units, to a particular component data-storage system, or particular group of component data-storage systems, within a distributed, differential electronic-data storage system by selecting one or more subsequences of data units from the data object, computing a characteristic value from the selected subsequences, computing an index from the characteristic value; and directing the data object to the particular component data-storage system, or to the particular group component data-storage systems, identified by the computed index.
