Abstract
Embodiments are directed to efficiently managing data storage and efficiently storing data. In one scenario, a computer system receives a write request addressed to one portion of data storage within a data store. The computer system redirects the received write request to another portion of data storage which includes storage containers, each of which is a logically specified portion of the data store. The computer system determines which storage container the write request is to write to, and identifies a storage container that is to be de-staged from the second portion of data storage to the first portion of data storage. The computer system then de-stages the identified storage containers to the first portion of data storage, the data of the de-staged container being stored on the first portion of data storage in the same order in which the data was stored in the identified storage container prior to de-staging.
