Abstract
The disclosure provides a system, method and computer-readable storage device embodiments. Some embodiments can include an IPv6-centric distributed storage system. An example method includes receiving, at a computing device, a request to create metadata associated with an object from a client, creating the metadata based on the request and transmitting the metadata and an acknowledgment to the client, wherein the metadata contains an address in a storage system for each replica of the object and wherein the metadata can be used to write data to the storage system and read the data from the storage system. There is no file system layer between an application layer and a storage system layer.
