Thirdly, directory conversion metadata are adopted to avoid the directories traversal in subtree partition shemes and file metadata migrations incurred by renaming a directory in HASH schemes. Consequently, it can improve overall metadata access performance. Lastly, based on different characteristics of each kind of metadata, different partition methods are adopted to facilitate the expansion of the system scale. The experimental results show that the strategy can significantly improve the metadata access performance and the scalability of the system. As the metadata workload changes over time, a static distribution of metadata workloads in MDS cluster may cause a MDS to become the system performance bottleneck at a certain time. Load balancing is implemented in the MDS cluster to provide high performance and scalable metadata service. A load balancing algorithm is introduced to solve the load imbalance in the MDS cluster. It adopts metadata request response time as the metric, and attempts reducing the difference of metadata request response times among all MDSs to achieve load balancing in MDS cluster. A data placement strategy is proposed for small, determinate scale storage systems, which utilizes the genetic algorithm to solve the placement problem based on different file characteristics, and it endeavors to seek the approximate optimal solution. A group-based differentiated location strategy is proposed for large, volatile scale storage systems. It firstly arranges each OSD into a storage sub-cluster according to the period of the OSD joining the system, and a distributed algorithm is adopted to map objects into different sub-clusters. Different objects are placed with different methods in a sub-cluster. A heuristic method is employed to select a
