Method and system for mitigating impact of user errors in data stores

摘要

The invention provides a method and system for managing data access. The method includes receiving a request for accessing a file, determining a type of the received request that corresponds to an access pattern based on history of many files, marking the request based on the type of request to identify the request as a candidate to be part of a sequential scan for accessing files in a sequential order, and processing the request based on the marking to throttle access of the file in the case of a potential ongoing erroneously requested sequential scan.
