Techniques are provided for key-value store and file system integration to optimize key value store operations. A key-value store is integrated within a file system of a node. A log structured merge tree of the key-value store may be populated with a key corresponding to a content hash of a value data item stored separate from the key. A random distribution search may be performed upon a sorted log of the log structured merge tree to identify the key for accessing the value data item. A starting location for the random distribution search is derived from key information, a log size of the sorted log, and/or a keyspace size of a keyspace associated with the key.

Key-value store and file system integration

Data protection methods and systems for a storage environment are provided. A first-in-first out (FIFO) structure stores a logical representation of a first storage location that retains previous data for a data container, after new data for the data container is stored at a second storage location. The FIFO structure also stores a logical representation of a file system tree structure that is stored in persistent storage, after a consistent point operation. In response to an event, the file system tree structure is selected, based on the file system tree structure being closest to a transaction. A snapshot is generated using the file system tree structure. Thereafter, the data container is restored from the snapshot or from a copy of the snapshot.

Data protection methods and systems for a networked storage environment

Presented herein are system and method for providing a non-disruptive mechanism for splitting a parent volume located on a first aggregate into a new volume, the method comprising: splitting the parent volume, by the network storage system, into a new volume, wherein the new volume comprises an application; and providing a snapshot of the parent volume at the new volume.
