Object Storage System with Versioned Meta Objects

Example object storage systems, meta object generators, and methods provide versioned meta objects for internal operational data that may be replicated between data object stores. A meta object may be generated that includes meta object data, such as internal operational data. A meta object identifier may be assigned to the meta object. A first version identifier may be associated with the meta object data and a second version identifier may be associated with a marker for the meta object, where the marker prevents exposure as a user data object.
