Abstract
Disclosed systems and methods employ a data prefetch mechanism for tiered streaming storage systems. Disclosed features improve performance and efficiency of batch reads, i.e., read operations that require data imported from a long-term storage service. In at least some embodiments, disclosed systems and methods execute asynchronous, parallel prefetch reads from long-term storage while a reader is performing batch reads. The prefetched data may correspond to the next data required by the reader and, if so, the reader can perform the next read operation without incurring the latency associated with a synchronous read from long term storage. Disclosed systems and methods thereby beneficially improve throughput for streaming batch readers.
