the fifth server is one of the first plurality of application servers; and
the fifth server is configured to receive a request from a second client for the data object;
a sixth server that stores a sixth plurality of data objects and is configured to request the data object from the third server if the data object is not present in the sixth plurality of data objects, wherein;
the sixth server is one of the second plurality of application servers; and
the sixth server is configured to receive a request from a third client for the data object; and
a seventh server that stores a seventh plurality of data objects and is configured to request the data object from the third server if the data object is not present in the seventh plurality of data objects, wherein;
the seventh server is one of the second plurality of application servers; and
the seventh server is configured to receive a request from a fourth client for the data object.

Abstract
Various cloud data persistence systems and methods are described. In some embodiments, a client may request a data object from a server. This data object may contain a link to a media asset and other information linked to the video file, such as a title and duration. This media asset may be stored in a different location. If this first server does not have the data object stored locally, it may contact a second server to determine if it has the data object stored. If the second server does not have the data object stored, it may contact a data object origin server, which may have all existing data objects stored. This data object origin server may then send the data object to the second server, which may in turn transmit the data object to the first server. The first server may then transmit the data object to the client.
