LARGE SCALE UNSTRUCTURED DATABASE SYSTEMS

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media provide techniques for on-demand access to object data hosted in distributed object storage. A query is received for the distributed object storage database, wherein the distributed object storage database includes first object data stored in a first data center at a first geographical location, and second object data stored in a second data center at a second geographical location. It is determined that the query is for at least a portion of the first object data stored by the first data center. The query is transmitted to a first computing device in the first data center. Results are received from the first computing device for the query, and the results are provided in response to the received query.
