Abstract

A hosted storage system includes a namespace that contains object identifiers. A first object containing a first data component is stored. A first object identifier in the namespace uniquely identifies the first object. A second object containing a second data component is stored. A second object identifier in the namespace uniquely identifies the second object. A compose object request that designating the first object identifier, the second object identifier, and a third object identifier in the namespace is received. A third object that includes the first data component and the second data component without duplicating the first data component and the second data component is created. The third object identifier is associated with the third object such that the third object identifier uniquely identifies the third object.
