Apparatus, system, and method for managing concurrent storage requests

摘要

Apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed for managing concurrent storage requests. A multiple storage request receiver module is configured to recognize at least two storage requests from clients for data in storage devices of a storage device set. The at least two concurrent storage requests address a common portion of data. A sequencer module is configured to determine a first storage request and a second storage request from the concurrent storage requests by way of selection criteria. The sequencer module is configured to ensure completion of the first storage request prior to executing the second storage request by receiving an acknowledgment from each of the storage devices of the storage device set that received portions of the first storage request. The portions may be sent to the storage devices to execute the first storage request.
