Object Storage Systems Support for Database

In this paper, we propose some emerging research direction as a combination of both Object-based Storage (OBS) system and conventional Database technology, grounded on the cutting edge study of OBS system. We´ve estimated possible needs for OBS on the demand of our database study, and the schedule algorithm within Object Storage Device (OSD) scale, along with a primary principle & analysis of Object-placement after Object-encapsulation of database. Nevertheless, this paper has been presumed as only a nascent issue, rather than a mature one as a combined study of database and Object-based storage technology. The project team I´m working for would therefore carry out more systematic overall study and realization strategies in future, infields such as the OBS-based database architecture, database object-placement, query & maintain, as well as schedule method within a single OSD, as well as performance comparison with traditional database system. We sincerely look forward to the further development in both areas by the coalition of database and Object-based Storage technology.
