Abstract
A composite layout including a plurality of ranked sub-layouts may be used to provide various functionality for data object look-up and file system activities. Each sub-layout may include mapping information linking one or more extents of a data object to one or more locations on one or more storage apparatuses. Generally, mapping information in the highest priority sub-layout including mapped extents may be used during 'reads' while the highest priority sub-layout may be used for 'writes.'
