Patent abstract
Techniques are disclosed for storing data in a plurality of storage tiers on a computing node. A node receives a request to write data corresponding to at least a first portion of a file. The node determines whether to perform the request either as an in-place write or as an out-of-place write. Upon determining to perform the request as the in-place write, the node writes the data to a first location on a storage tier which currently stores the first portion of the file. Upon determining to perform the request as the out-of-place write, the node writes the data to a second location on one of the storage tiers, other than the first location.
