Abstract
A method for low-latency data mirroring in a storage system, the method may include receiving, by a compute node of the storage system, a read request for reading a data unit stored at a primary storage block of the storage system; determining, by the compute node and based on primary storage block metadata, whether a content of the primary storage block is consistent; and responding to the determining of whether the content of the primary storage block is consistent. The responding may include (a) when determining that the primary storage block is inconsistent—copying the data unit from the primary storage block to a secondary storage block of the storage system, and updating the primary storage block metadata; and (b) reading the data unit from the primary storage block and sending the data unit to a requesting entity.
