A device configured to operate in a distributed network system includes a key-value processing system to generate at least one of a first request and a second request. The first request is to retrieve a selected one of a plurality of sub-groups of data. The first request includes a plurality of keys each including a first value identifying the selected one of the plurality of sub-groups and a respective one of a plurality of second values. Each of the second values identifies a respective subset of data within the selected one of the plurality of sub-groups. The second request is to retrieve a selected one of the subsets of data within the selected one of the plurality of sub-groups and includes a key. The key includes the first value and a selected one of the second values, and the selected one of the second values corresponds to a hash value.

Fast retrieval of related data partitioned across a distributed key-value store

A storage cluster includes a plurality of key-value storage nodes categorized into sub-groups of data associated with a first value identifying the sub-group and second values identifying respective subsets of data. A key-value processing system receives at least one of a first request to retrieve a selected one of the sub-groups of data, the first request including a plurality of keys, each of the plurality of keys including the first value and a respective one of the second values, and a second request to retrieve a selected one of the subsets of data. The second request includes a key having the first value and a selected one of the second values. The selected one of the second values corresponds to a hash value. The storage cluster selectively provides at least one of the selected one of the sub-groups of data and the selected one of the subsets of data.
