Abstract

Example storage systems, storage nodes, and methods provide storage node processing of predefined data functions, such as map-reduce functions. Storage nodes storing a plurality of symbols for a data unit are configured to select a predefined function using a data type of the data unit. Each storage node identifies subunits of the data unit from the symbols and processes the subunits using the predefined function to generate function results. A final result is returned based on the function results from each storage node.
