APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A PERSISTENT LEVEL-TWO CACHE

摘要

Aspects of the present disclosure disclose systems and methods for providing a level-two persistent cache. In various aspects, a solid-state drive is employed as a level-two cache to expand the capacity of existing caches. In particular, any data that is scheduled to be evicted or otherwise removed from a level-one cache is stored in the level-two cache with corresponding metadata in a manner that is quickly retrievable.
