Abstract

Embodiments relate to enabling sequential access for data scans on files with metadata. More specifically, object files are stored in a data storage. The objects are classified. A metaobject file is created in the data storage. The metaobject file is created by extracting attributes from the file from objects in a first classification. An entry is created in the metaobject file and the extracted attributes are stored in that entry. A file attribute is extracted from a file in the second classification and associated with the created entry in the metaobject file. A link is created between the file in the second classification and the related entry in the metaobject file.
