Abstract

Management of a storage system is enabled. In an example, a partition index associated with the partition is obtained, the partition index comprising a group of nodes, a node in the group of nodes indicating metadata of an object in the group of objects. A valid node in the partition index is identified, the valid node indicating valid metadata of an object associated with the valid node in the storage system. A local index for the partition index is generated based on the valid node. In response to receiving an access request for a target object in the group of objects, the target object in the storage system is accessed based on the local index. With the foregoing example implementations, metadata in the storage system may be accessed more efficiently, and the overall response speed of the storage system may be increased.
