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 5):
The method as recited in  claim 1 , further comprising:\n receiving a read request directed to a particular data block of the particular data chunk; downloading at least a portion of the particular data chunk, comprising the particular data block, from the remote storage service; determining whether the at least a portion of the particular data chunk is to be merged with one or more cached data blocks present in the first space; in response to determining that a merge is to be performed, merging the at least a portion of the particular data chunk with the one or more cached data blocks prior to storing the at least a portion of the particular data chunk in the first space; and extracting the particular data block from the at least a portion of the particular data chunk and providing the particular data block in response to the read request.
