主权项 1. A system, comprising: a storage system; and a processor coupled to the storage system and configured to: receive an indication to perform an operation with respect to data associated with a specified granularity of storage associated with a virtual machine;identify within a plurality of stored sets of meta information a stored set of meta information associated with the virtual machine, wherein the identified stored set of meta information associated with the virtual machine is maintained based at least in part on periodically querying a hypervisor, and wherein the identified stored set of meta information associated with the virtual machine indicates a type of guest operating system that is being run by the virtual machine, wherein the identified stored set of meta information associated with the virtual machine comprises statistical information associated with the virtual machine that includes at least one of a throughput and a cache hit ratio of the virtual machine;identify the data associated with the specified granularity of storage associated with the virtual machine using the identified stored set of meta information;perform the operation with respect to at least a portion of the identified data associated with the specified granularity of storage associated with the virtual machine; anddetermine whether to update the identified stored set of meta information based at least in part on a result associated with the performed operation.
