Abstract
Tiered storage may be implemented for processing data. Data processors may maintain some of a data set, including user data and metadata describing the user data, locally. The data set is also maintained a data store remote to the data processor. When processing requests are received, a determination is made as to whether the local portions of the data set can execute the processing request or one or more additional portions of the data set are needed from the remote data store. If additional portions of the data set are needed, then a request may be sent to the data store for the additional portions. Once received, the data processor may execute the processing request utilizing the additional portions. Portions of the data set maintained locally at the data processor may be selected and flushed from local storage to the remote data store.
