TECHNIQUES FOR EFFICIENTLY ENFORCING RESOURCE QUOTAS IN A MULTI-TENANT CLOUD STORAGE SYSTEM

摘要

A method and system for enforcing resource quotas in cloud storage systems are provided. The method comprises receiving a request to write an object to a target folder of a tenant, wherein the tenant is initially configured with a tenant quota limit and each of a plurality of folders of the tenant initially is configured with a folder quota limit, wherein the tenant quota limit is then dynamically allocated to the plurality of folders of the tenant; determining whether the folder quota limit of the target folder of the tenant is sufficient for storage of the object; upon determining that the folder quota limit of the target folder is sufficient, increasing a folder quota usage of the target folder by a delta value; and storing the object in the target folder.
