Effective SSD caching for high-performance home cloud server
Dongwoo Lee, Changwoo Min, Young Ik Eom · 2015
In this paper, we propose a novel SSD caching scheme and virtual disk image format, named SVD (Sequential Virtual Disk). Our proposed techniques are based on workload characteristics in home cloud server, in which synchronous random writes dominate. Unlike previous studies, we use SSD as a read-write cache in order to effectively mitigate performance degradation of synchronous random writes.
