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 6):
A system, comprising one or more computing devices operable to:\n designate a first storage space of a storage appliance to (a) cache at least a portion of one or more data chunks of a storage object of a remote storage service and (b) store inline metadata for the one or more data chunks; designate a second storage space of the storage appliance to store contiguous metadata for the one more data chunks of the storage object; update a portion of the contiguous metadata based at least in part on a modification of at least a portion of inline metadata, wherein said update of the portion of the contiguous metadata is performed asynchronously with respect to the modification of the at least a portion of inline metadata; and after a restart of the storage appliance, determine a state of the at least a portion of a particular data chunk using the portion of the contiguous metadata, and enable client access to the at least a portion of the particular data chunk.
