Reduction of Storage Fragmentation on Direct Access Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
A technique is described for partially reorganizing the contents of disk storage so as to reduce the level of fragmentation. The method entails choosing that fraction of the contents which is estimated to have the greatest impact on the free space distribution, followed by the relocation of these data to more favorable locations, subject to the system integrity requirements .

متن کاملTowards High Performance Disaggregated Flash Storage with Programmable NIC
Existing storage disaggregation solutions all require remote host memory as a proxy to access storage devices. This creates a single bottleneck between CPU root complex and PCIe switch and induces too much DRAM footprint. Moreover, those software solutions introduce high tail latency due to commands batching, system interrupt and context switch. This latency overhead is non-trivial for fast NVM...
