Abstract
Data units can be relocated in scale-out storage systems. For example, a computing device can receive, at a first node of a scale-out storage system, a request for a data unit. The first node can include a metadata entry associated with the data unit. The computing device can determine, based on the metadata entry, that a second node of the scale-out storage system includes the data unit. The computing device can determine, from the metadata entry, that a number of versions of the data unit in the scale-out storage system meets or exceeds a threshold. The computing device can output a command to cause the data unit to be relocated to the first node with the metadata entry.
