Abstract
An apparatus includes a processor and a storage storing instructions causing the processor to receive representation metadata indicating features of representation data to be generated from a plurality of representation portions, receive a command to generate at least one row of the representation data, determine a subset of data blocks of a data blob required to generate the at least one row, and a subset of node devices that store the subset of data blocks, for each node device of the subset of node devices, derive a node block map identifying at least one data item of a data block for generating a representation portion, transmit the node block maps to the subset of node devices; and transmit a command to the subset of node devices to each generate at least one row of one of the plurality of representation portions.
