Abstract
The disclosure provides a method, a distributed controller and a system for managing sequential storage devices in a distributed storage environment. The method comprising receiving a client allocation request from a client device and determining at least one zone set from a plurality of zone set based on the client allocation request and predefined I/O parameters. Each zone set of the plurality of zone set comprises a plurality of zones of sequential storage devices. Thereafter, method comprises provisioning the at least one zone set to the client device based on the client allocation request, thereby, managing the sequential storage devices. Each zone of a sequential storage device is arranged into a zone set based on at least one of sequential storage device parameters, and zone parameters. The use of the distributed controller allows optimizing the performance of the sequential storage devices and optimizing the network bandwidth utilization.
