Abstract: An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a memory controller to interface with a multi-level memory, where, an upper level of the multi-level memory is to act as a cache for a lower level of the multi-level memory. The memory controller has circuitry to determine: i) an original address of a slot in the upper level of memory from an address of a memory request in a direct mapped fashion; ii) a miss in the cache for the request because the slot is pinned with data from another address that competes with the address; iii) a partner slot of the slot in the cache in response to the miss; iv) whether there is a hit or miss in the partner slot in the cache for the request.

Abstract: Technologies for managing replica caching in a distributed storage system include a storage manager device. The storage manager device is configured to receive a data write request to store replicas of data. Additionally, the storage manager device is configured to designate one of the replicas as a primary replica, select a first storage node to store the primary replica of the data in a cache storage and at least a second storage node to store a non-primary replica of the data in a non-cache storage. The storage manager device is further configured to include a hint in a first replication request to the first storage node that the data is to be stored in the cache storage of the first storage node as the primary replica. Further, the storage manager device is configured to transmit replication requests to the respective storage nodes. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Provided are an apparatus, method, and system for programming a multi-cell storage cell group. A non-volatile memory has storage cells. Each storage cell is programmed with information using a plurality of threshold voltage levels and each storage cell is programmed from bits from a plurality of pages. A memory controller is configured to program the storage cells and to organize the storage cells in the non-volatile memory into storage cell groups. Each storage cell group stores a number of bits of information and each of the storage cells in each of the storage cell groups is programmed with the plurality of threshold voltage levels. The memory controller selects bits from the pages to write for one storage cell group and determines at least one threshold voltage level to use for each of the storage cells in the storage cell group to program the selected bits in the storage cell group.
