Systems and methods for providing scalable object storage query capabilities in a distributed storage system are disclosed. In one implementation, a processing device may receive, by an object-based distributed storage system, a request from a client to execute a query with respect to data stored at the distributed storage system. The processing device may execute the query to produce a result object and may store the result object at the distributed storage system. The processing device may further transmit the result object to the client. The processing device may re-execute the query at a subsequent point in time to update the result object and transmit the updated result object to the client.
