Abstract
An apparatus comprises a multi-tier storage system having a front-end storage tier, a back-end storage tier and a data mover module coupled to the front-end and back-end storage tiers and configured to control movement of data between the storage tiers. A translator at least partially incorporated in or otherwise associated with the multi-tier storage system implements a plurality of translation services and one or more index tables. A given one of the translation services is configured to access at least one of the index tables in order to determine a dynamically loadable namespace identifier associated with an application running on an analysis node that communicates with the multi-tier storage system over at least one network, and to instantiate a name node corresponding to the dynamically loadable namespace identifier. Particular objects of an object store of the back-end storage tier are made accessible to the application via the name node.
