Abstract

Windows Azure Storage (WAS) is a cloud storage system that provides customers the ability to store seemingly limitless amounts of data for any duration of time. WAS customers have access to their data from anywhere at any time and only pay for what they use and store. In WAS, data is stored durably using both local and geographic replication to facilitate disaster recovery. Currently, WAS storage comes in the form of Blobs (files), Tables (structured storage), and Queues (message delivery). In this paper, we describe the WAS architecture, global namespace, and data model, as well as its resource provisioning, load balancing, and replication systems.

Windows Azure Storage:高可用性、高一致性的云存储服务

Windows Azure存储(WAS)是一个云存储系统，它为客户提供了在任何时间内存储看似无限量的数据的能力。WAS用户可以随时随地访问他们的数据，只需为他们使用和存储的数据付费。在WAS中，使用本地和地理复制持久地存储数据，以促进灾难恢复。目前，WAS存储以blob(文件)、表(结构化存储)和队列(消息传递)的形式出现。在本文中，我们描述了WAS体系结构、全局命名空间和数据模型，以及它的资源供应、负载平衡和复制系统。
