ABSTRACT:
Techniques are provided for responding to file requests received through a file system interface. According to one technique, an association is established between a file identifier and a query. A request for a file associated with the file identifier is received through the file system interface. In response to the request, the following steps are performed: executing the query to generate a set of data; generating contents of the file based on the set of data; and providing the file through the file system interface.
