Abstract
A data storage technique involves determining one or more storage allocation units from a virtual storage region corresponding to a disk set including a plurality of disks. The technique further involves allocating a virtual storage unit to the one or more storage allocation units. The technique further involves storing a mapping relationship of the virtual storage unit with respect to the virtual storage region and the one or more storage allocation units. Accordingly, the granularity of each virtual storage unit can be reduced, so that storage resources can be invoked more accurately, and the storage space can be saved.
