Abstract
A storage system includes a computing node and a switching device coupled to each other. The computing node sends a first network packet to the switching device, the first network packet carries a resource identifier, a first offset, and an input/output (I/O) command. The switching device determines an object storage device (OSD) corresponding to an I/O operation. The switching device generates a second offset according to the first offset and a size of the OSD, obtains a first network address of a first storage node accommodating a first OSD on which the I/O operation is to be performed and an identifier of the first OSD, generates a second network packet, and sends the second network packet to the first storage node. In the foregoing manner, a computation amount of the computing node can be decreased, and running efficiency of the computing node is improved.
