    Abstract: An illustrative method includes a storage management system ingesting a data item into a unified storage system via a storage system interface among a plurality of storage system interfaces associated with the unified storage system, determining, in response to the ingesting of the data item into the unified storage system, an operation based on the data item, and providing a notification of the operation to an orchestration system configured to manage an execution of the operation by a computing system associated with the unified storage system. In certain embodiments, the unified storage system may be implemented as compute-aware storage system such as a container orchestrator-aware storage system.

    Abstract: Synchronously replicating a dataset across cloud-based storage systems, including adding a cloud-based storage system to a set of storage systems that the dataset is synchronously replicated across, where access operations are applied to the dataset equivalently through all storage systems in the set, all storage systems in the set store a separate copy of the dataset, and operations to modify the dataset performed and completed through any of the storage systems in the set are reflected in access operations to read the dataset, the cloud-based storage system including one or more cloud computing instances executing a storage controller application, a virtual drive layer that includes one or more cloud computing instances with local storage for storing at least a portion of the dataset as block data, and an object storage layer for storing at least a portion of the dataset as object data.

    Abstract: Recovering from system faults for replicated datasets, including: receiving, by the cloud-based storage system, a request to modify a dataset that is stored by the cloud-based storage system, wherein the dataset is synchronously replicated among a plurality of storage systems that includes the cloud-based storage system, wherein a request to modify the dataset is acknowledged as being complete when each of the plurality of storage systems has modified its copy of the dataset; generating recovery information indicating whether the request to modify the dataset has been applied on all storage systems in the plurality of storage systems synchronously replicating the dataset; and after a system fault, applying a recovery action in dependence upon the recovery information indicating whether the request to modify the dataset has been applied on all storage systems in the plurality of storage systems synchronously replicating the dataset.

    Abstract: Servicing I/O operations in a cloud-based storage system, including: receiving, by the cloud-based storage system, a request to write data to the cloud-based storage system; storing, in solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system, the data; storing, in object storage of the cloud-based storage system, the data; detecting that at least some portion of the solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system has become unavailable; identifying data that was stored in the portion of the solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system that has become unavailable; retrieving, from object storage of the cloud-based storage system, the data that was stored in the portion of the solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system that has become unavailable; and storing, in solid-state storage of the cloud-based storage system, the retrieved data.

    Abstract: An illustrative method includes a monitoring system obtaining event data describing an event within a distributed compute and storage system, generating an event block for the event based on the event data, and attaching the event block to an event blockchain associated with the distributed compute and storage system, the event blockchain being immutable and indicating one or more events within the distributed compute and storage system in a chronological order of the one or more events. The event blockchain is used to provide one or more features of a storage system.
