The invention discloses a file
access method, device and equipment and a computer readable storage medium, and belongs to the technical field of storage. The method is applied to a first node in a
file system and comprises the steps that a first write request for a file is received, the first write request comprises first file data and IO information, and the IO information represents an address range for writing the first file data; in response to the first write request,
metadata of the file is obtained, and the
metadata comprises an extension attribute and a
file size; according to the IO information and the
file size, under the condition that it is determined that the written
file size does not exceed the reference threshold value, the first file data is written into the extension attribute, and the written file size is the file size after the first file data is written. The file data is embedded in the
metadata of the file, and the file data can be accessed while the metadata of the small file is accessed, so that the step of accessing the file data is reduced, the
response time delay of the
file system to the access request is reduced, and the purpose of improving the access performance of the
system is achieved.
