    Abstract: A system and method for distributed caching, the system having at least one network-connected storage device, a content server, and a control server. The control server is configured to discover the at least one network-connected storage device, collect device information from the at least one network-connected storage device, where the device information comprises a device location, assign each of the at least one network-connected storage device to a device domain based on each device location, and provide the content server with the device information for the one or more network-connected storage.

    Abstract: A distributed storage system can include a storage node (125, 130, 135). The storage node (125, 130, 135) can include a Solid State Drive (SSD) or other storage device that employs garbage collection (140, 145, 150, 155, 160, 165, 225, 230), a device garbage collection monitor (205), a garbage collection coordinator (210), an Input/Output (I/O) redirector (215), and an I/O resynchronizer (220). The device garbage collection monitor (205) can determine whether any storage devices (140, 145, 150, 155, 160, 165, 225, 230) need to perform garbage collection. The garbage collection coordinator (210) can schedule when the storage device (140, 145, 150, 155, 160, 165, 225, 230) can perform garbage collection. The I/O redirector (215) can redirect read requests (905) and write requests (1005) away from the storage device (140, 145, 150, 155, 160, 165, 225, 230) when it is performing garbage collection. The I/O resynchronizer (220) can ensure that data on the storage device (140, 145, 150, 155, 160, 165, 225, 230) is up-to-date after garbage collection finishes.

    Abstract: A system and a method to allocate data to a first cache increments a first counter if a reuse indicator for the data indicates that the data is likely to be reused and decremented the counter if the reuse indicator for the data indicates that the data is likely not to be reused. A second counter is incremented upon eviction of the data from the second cache, which is a higher level cache than the first cache. The data is allocated to the first cache if the value of the first counter is equal to or greater than the first predetermined threshold or the value of the second counter equals zero, and the data is bypassed from the first cache if the value of the first counter is less than the first predetermined threshold and the value of the second counter is not equal to zero.
