28 * Constructor class for key/value blob data kept in external repositories.
30 * Objects in external stores are defined by a special URL. The URL is of
31 * the form "<store protocol>://<location>/<object name>". The protocol is used
32 * to determine what ExternalStoreMedium class is used. The location identifies
33 * particular storage instances or database clusters for store class to use.
35 * When an object is inserted into a store, the calling code uses a partial URL of
36 * the form "<store protocol>://<location>" and receives the full object URL on success.
37 * This is useful since object names can be sequential IDs, UUIDs, or hashes.
38 * Callers are not responsible for unique name generation.
40 * External repositories might be populated by maintenance/async
41 * scripts, thus partial moving of data may be possible, as well
42 * as the possibility to have any storage format (i.e. for archives).
