DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM

摘要

A data processing application processes data files and generates storage operation instructions for data files identified by identification information independent of the storage location of the data files. A plurality of storage locations are provided for storing data files and a storage map stores information on the storage locations of stored data files in the storage locations and identification information for the stored data files. The identification information generated by the data processing application is used to look up a storage location information and a storage interface receives the storage location information and storage operation instructions indicating a storage operation to be carried out and carries out the storage operation instructions for the data file in a storage location indicated by the storage location information.
