Abstract
A data storage system allowing for ingest of data when certain storage is unavailable is described herein. The storage system includes zones that are independent and autonomous from each other. The zones include nodes that are independent and autonomous. The nodes include storage devices. When data is to be stored in the data storage system according to a specified storage policy and the specified storage policy cannot be achieved, the data is stored according to a fallback storage policy. This allows a client to be able to continue executing without having to wait for a storage anomaly to be corrected or pass. After the data is stored according to a fallback storage policy, the data is at a later time stored according to the specified storage policy.
