Claim:
1. A distributed storage system for storing a partitioned key-value store, comprising: at least one compute node comprising a partitioned key-value store server; the partitioned key-value store server comprising at least one processor executing one or more instructions in communication with a memory to provide a key-value interface to provide key-value data in a key-value format to at least one hardware accelerated key-value store that communicates using said key-value format, wherein said partitioned key-value store server comprises a given partition corresponding to a distinct range of keys, and wherein a range-knowledgeable client executing in said distributed storage system knows that said partitioned key-value store server stores said distinct range of keys, and sends one or more requests for key-value data within said distinct range of keys directly to said partitioned key-value store server.
