Configuration manager and method for configuring a host system for processing a processing job in a virtual data-processing environment

摘要

Described herein are systems, methods, and software for translating data requests in a data processing cluster. In one example, a method of operating a cache service to interface between a virtual machine cluster and job data associated with a job executed by the virtual machine cluster includes identifying a request initiated by the virtual machine cluster to access at least a portion of the job data in accordance with a first distributed object access protocol. The method further includes in response to the request, accessing at least the portion of the job data in accordance with a second distributed object access protocol, and presenting at least the portion of the job data to the virtual machine cluster in accordance with the first distributed object access protocol.

1. A method of operating a cache service to interface between a virtual machine cluster and job data associated with a job executed by the virtual machine cluster, the method comprising:
in the cache service, identifying a request initiated by the job on a virtual machine of the virtual machine cluster to access at least a portion of the job data from a storage system, wherein the request is in accordance with a first distributed object access protocol and wherein the job data is stored on the storage system using a second distributed object access protocol; in the cache service, in response to the request, accessing at least the portion of the job data in accordance with the second distributed object access protocol; in the cache service, presenting at least the portion of the job data to the job on the virtual machine in accordance with the first distributed object access protocol; in the cache service, identifying a second request initiated by the job on the virtual machine of the virtual machine cluster to access at least a second portion of the job data from a second storage system, wherein the second request is in accordance with the first distributed object access protocol and wherein the job data is stored on the second storage system using a third distributed object access protocol; in the cache service, in response to the second request, accessing at least the second portion of the job data in accordance with the third distributed object access protocol; and in the cache service, presenting at least the second portion of the job data to the job on the virtual machine in accordance with the first distributed object access protocol.
