Object Based Storage Device Commands

As such this is not a completed standard and has not been approved.

Object based storage device commands. The object based storage device model is defined by this spec ification. Dave anderson expects to be at the november working group to present an overview of the proposal and answer questions regarding the initial draft. Each snapshot can be placed into a new partition moved to a central store or replicated to another site.

Osd object based storage device standards effort in the early 2000 s created a scsi command set for objects there is a storage device behind this interface http hypertext transfer protocol a simple put get protocol for the world wide web there is an arbitrary service behind this interface 6. Snapshots are a point in time copy of all the objects in a partition. Scsi object based storage device commands osd this is an internal working document of t10 a technical committee of accredited standards committee incits international committee for information technology standards. Object storage at the protocol and device layer was proposed 20 years ago ambiguous and approved for the scsi command set nearly 10 years ago ambiguous as object based storage device commands osd however it had not been put into production until the development of the seagate kinetic open storage platform.

Object based storage has emerged as a preferred method for data archiving and back up today s digital communications unstructured media web content email videos image files and web pages and sensor data produced by iot devices. The t10 technical committee is working on a specification for object based storage devices osds that turns files directories and storage related elements into objects and handles storage management issues using an extended scsi 3 command set a storage object is a virtual entity that groups data that has been determined by the user to be logically related. It specifies the required commands and behavior that is specific to the osd device type. Object based storage devices command set proposal the attached proposal is offered for an initial draft of a scsi obsd command set.

Object based storage devices command set proposal the attached proposal is offered for an initial draft of a scsi obsd command set. Object based storage devices under the osd 2 version enable the snapshotting of storage systems to occur.
