Claim 11:
12. A system comprising a plurality of storage nodes, wherein a first storage node of the plurality of storage nodes comprises one or more computer processors programmed by executable instructions to at least:
generate latency data representing latency associated with servicing requests for individual data objects of a plurality of data objects stored on the first storage node;
receive, from a gateway node, a first request for a first data object of the plurality of data objects;
determine, based at least partly on the latency data, that a redirection criterion is satisfied;
determine, based at least partly on satisfaction of the redirection criterion, that the first request is to be redirected to a second storage node of the plurality of storage nodes;
send a redirection response to the gateway node, wherein the redirection response indicates that the gateway node is to obtain the first data object from the second storage node;
receive, from the second storage node, a second request for the first data object; and
in response to the second request, send a replica of the first data object to the second storage node.
