Abstract

Technology is disclosed for subpartitioning a namespace region. In various embodiments, the technology creates at least two subpartitions from a partitioned namespace, wherein the partitioned namespace corresponds to at least two different name nodes of the large scale data storage service; and stores data corresponding to each subpartition as a separate file, e.g., so that it can be easily mounted by an operating system executed by a different computing device.
