Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for isolating mirroring operations when interacting with a data storage space, and more specifically to directing data to be stored in two locations, where storing the data in the second location does not slow or impede storing the data in the first location. Upon receiving a request to store data, the system can determine a first storage space and a second storage space in which to store the data. Instructions can be prepared for storing the data in the first storage space while at the same time preparing instructions for storing identical data in the second storage space. The system can communicate the instructions to both storage systems, with the first storage space immediately beginning the storage process while the second storage space places the instructions into a queue for later processing.
