摘要:
A multi-tiered cache manager and methods for managing multi-tiered cache are described. Multi-tiered cache manager causes cached data to be initially stored in the RAM elements and selects portions of the cached data stored in the RAM elements to be moved to the flash elements. Each flash element is organized as a plurality of write blocks having a block size and wherein a predefined maximum number of writes is permitted to each write block. The portions of the cached data may be selected based on a maximum write rate calculated from the maximum number of writes allowed for the flash device and a specified lifetime of the cache system.
