Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to object storage services employing an embeddings-based data layout using embedding vectors for data objects to be stored. Embedding vectors allow for data objects that are 'similar' to be placed physically close (i.e., same server (storage node) or group of servers), based on a similarity metric with the embedding vectors. Further, the data layout is controlled by defined policies which specify the storage bucket, storage nodes included in the storage bucket and an embedding model to create the embedding vectors. The data policies are customizable by administrators of the storage system. In addition to data layout and embedding vectors, embodiments also relate to data replication that conforms with the data layout.
