Abstract

A data platform that performs a file existence check is provided. The data platform creates a bounded page and selects a set of selected metadata files from a set of metadata files, where each selected metadata file includes a set of data file metadata files. Each member of the set of data file metadata files includes a file name of a respective data file. The data platform stores the set of data file metadata files of each selected metadata file in a first sorted list in the bounded page. The data platform retrieves a second sorted list of file names of a set of data files stored on a data storage system. The data platform determines the existence of each respective data file of each member of the set of data file metadata files on the data storage system by comparing the first sorted list to the second sorted list.
