Abstract
A method that is performed to access data nodes of a data cluster. The method includes obtaining, by a data access gateway (DAG), a first request from a host; and in response to the first request, obtaining first bidding counters from the data nodes; obtaining first metadata mappings from the data nodes; making a first determination that the first request may not be served using any data node in an accelerator pool of the data cluster; and in response to the first determination, identifying, based on the bidding counters and metadata mappings, a data node in a non-accelerator pool of the data cluster associated with a first highest bidding counter of the bidding counters and a first appropriate metadata mapping of the metadata mappings; and sending the first request to the data node in the non-accelerator pool of the data cluster.
