Zusammenfassung:A system has been designed that uses defined, abstracted object commands to facilitate adaptation to heterogeneous backend targets. The backend targets are heterogeneous at least in terms of data access protocols. The architecture of the system allows the system to adapt to changes in data access protocols and addition of data access protocols. The system can operate as a bridge between multiple instances of multiple file systems and the heterogeneous backend targets. The system directs the abstracted object commands to an object storage adapter. The object storage adapter is designed to route a defined, abstracted object command to at least one of a number of modules that translate the abstracted object command.
