Abstract

See full text

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a storage abstraction layer that is a concatenation of a plurality of storage devices that is accessible by a computing device. The plurality of storage devices includes at least one attached storage of the computing device, at least one cloud storage, or a combination thereof. The storage abstraction layer is presented as an application programming interface (API) to applications running on the computing device to allow each application to store and retrieve data as if it was using a single storage, regardless of where each of the plurality of storage devices is located and the type of each of the plurality of storage devices. Access to individual objects or files on this layer is done transparently such that underlying implementation details are hidden from the calling application.
