An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for servicing object requests within a storage controller. An object request receiver module is included that receives an object request from a requesting device. The object request is received by the storage controller and directed at a data segment of an object managed by the storage controller. The storage controller stores the data segment in a data storage device coupled to the storage controller. A parsing module is included that parses at least one command from the object request. A command execution module is included that executes the at least one command parsed from the object request. An object index module is included that creates an object entry in an object index in response to the storage controller storing the data segment of the object. The object entry includes a mapping between a logical identifier of the object and one or more physical addresses corresponding to where the storage controller stored one or more data packets created from one or more data segments of the object and metadata packets created from object attributes of the object.
