DISTRIBUTED STORAGE SYSTEM

A distributed storage system includes a plurality of host servers including a primary compute node and backup compute nodes for processing first data having a first identifier, and a plurality of storage nodes that communicates communicate with the plurality of compute nodes, and includes a plurality of storage volumes. The plurality of storage volumes include a primary storage volume and backup storage volumes for storing the first data. The primary compute node provides a replication request for the first data to a primary storage node providing the primary storage volume, when a write request for the first data is received and the primary storage node stores, based on the replication request, the first data in the primary storage volume, copies the first data to the backup storage volumes, and provides, to the primary compute node, a completion acknowledgement to the replication request.
