Abstract
A data storage system having mutable objects incorporating time is described herein. According to the systems and methods described herein, a data item may be partitioned into parts (data objects) and stored as an index object. As the object storage system provides immutable objects, when a new version of a data item needs to be stored, only those parts (data objects) of the data item that changed need be saved rather than the entire data item. The systems and methods described herein allow for efficient storage, access and manipulation of mutable data items using an underlying immutable object system.
