Abstract
Methods and apparatus are provided for reorganizing dynamically loadable namespaces (DLNs). In one exemplary embodiment, a method comprises the steps of, in response to a job submitted by an application, obtaining a DLN portion of a global single namespace of a file system, wherein the DLN is associated with the job and is maintained in a capacity tier of object storage of a storage system; obtaining one or more reordering directives from a user; rearranging one or more files in the DLN into a new directory hierarchy based on the one or more reordering directives to generate a reordered DLN; and dynamically loading the reordered DLN, including the metadata only for the reordered DLN, from the capacity tier of object storage into a performance tier of storage of the storage system for processing by the application. The reordered DLN is merged into the DLN following one or more modifications to the reordered DLN.
