Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for supporting cached volumes at storage gateways are disclosed. A storage gateway appliance is configured to cache at least a portion of a storage object of a remote storage service at local storage devices. In response to a client's write request, directed to at least a portion of a data chunk of the storage object, the appliance stores a data modification indicated in the write request at a storage device, and asynchronously uploads the modification to the storage service. In response to a client's read request, directed to a different portion of the data chunk, the appliance downloads the requested data from the storage service to the storage device, and provides the requested data to the client.

Claim (Index 14):
The system as recited in  claim 13 , wherein in response to a read request from a client, directed at the particular data block and received after the write request, the one or more computing devices are further operable to:\n determine whether the particular data block in the first storage space comprises the invalidity indicator; in response to determining that the particular data block comprises the invalidity indicator,\n download at least a portion of the particular data chunk from the remote storage service, \n merge the at least a portion of the particular data chunk with the modified particular portion of the particular block, wherein said merge comprises a removal of the invalidity indicator from the remainder portion; and \n provide at least a portion of a result of the merge to the client; and \n in response to determining that the particular data block does not comprise the invalidity indicator, provide the particular data block from the first storage space to the client.
