Abstract
Systems and methods are described for implementing programmatic input/output (I/O) routing to datasets with user-defined partitions while providing unhandled data protection. As disclosed herein, a user may define a dataset as including one or more partitions, each partition including criteria for storing data objects written to the partitioned dataset in the individual partitions. Data objects written to the dataset can then be evaluated according to the criteria, and routed to an appropriate partition. To provide unhandled data protection, a dataset definition can include a default partition to which data objects are routed when the data object fails to satisfy the criteria of any of the set of user-defined partitions identified in the specification. Processing I/O operations according to a user-defined partitioning schema can enable data objects to be arranged according to any partitioning schema without tethering the partitioning to a particular underlying storage system.
