Abstract

Mapping information identifies ranges of files, a set of front-end microservices, and assignments of the ranges to the front-end microservices. Each front-end microservice is thereby responsible for a range of files. The files are represented by segment trees and the front-end microservices handle operations involving an upper-level of the segment trees. A file system request on a file is directed to a particular front-end microservice that is responsible for handling a particular range of files within which the file falls according to the mapping information. An indication is received from a container orchestration service that a number of front-end microservices has changed. The mapping information is updated based on the change in the number of front-end microservices.
