Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a data prefetching method, a node, and a system. The method includes: a first storage node receives a read request sent by a client, determines a to-be-prefetched data block and a second storage node where the to-be-prefetched data block resides according to a read data block and a set to-be-prefetched data block threshold, and sends a prefetching request to the second storage node, the prefetching request includes identification information of the to-be-prefetched data block, and the identification information is used to identify the to-be-prefetched data block; and the second storage node reads the to-be-prefetched data block from a disk according to the prefetching request, and stores the to-be-prefetched data block in a local buffer, so that the client reads the to-be-prefetched data block from the local buffer of the second storage node.
