Abstract:
Examples may include techniques for adaptive compression for data stored in a memory device. The techniques include monitoring a data access pattern to a file or a block for data stored in the memory device and determining a data compression action based on, at least in part, the monitored data access patterns for the file or the block and on an assessed relationship of the file or the block with other files or other blocks. The data compression action including compressing data accessed via the file or the block, decompressing compressed data accessed via the file or the block or no compression action for data accessed via the file or the block.
