Original Abstract Submitted
A key-value storage device may perform error-handling on key-value data stored in a memory device. The key-value storage device may be communicatively coupled to a host device that may transmit read commands to retrieve the key-value data stored on the memory device. In response to a read command, the storage device may retrieve the key-value data from the memory device. If during retrieval the storage device identifies that a portion of the key-value data is irretrievable, the storage device may perform an error-handling operation on the key-value data. Depending on a key-value data type, the storage device may perform an error concealment operation and return complete key-value data or a partial error-handling operation and return partial key-value data to the host.
