METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FORWARD REFERENCE LOGGING IN A PERSISTENT DATASTORE

摘要

The embodiments described herein are methods and systems to enhance the reliability and performance of a persistent datastore (e.g., non-volatile memory such as flash memory). The method includes generating a log entry associated with first write data. The method also includes generating a first record including the log entry, the first write data, and pointer to a second record different from the first record. The method further includes performing a single write operation that includes writing the first record to the persistent datastore.
