Abstract

A method for storing data, comprising receiving, by a file system (FS) client executing on an offload component, a first request from a translation module, wherein the translation module translated a second request that was to be performed on an emulated block device into the first request, wherein the first request is specified using file semantics, wherein the first request is associated with data, wherein the offload component is located in a hardware layer of a client application node, and wherein the translation module is located on the offload component, and processing the first request by the FS client and a memory hypervisor module, wherein the FS client and the memory hypervisor module are executing in a modified client FS container on the offload component, wherein processing the first request results in at least a portion of the data being stored in a location in a storage pool.
