Mitigating write interference on SSD in home cloud server
Hyeji Lee, Minho Lee, Young Ik Eom · 2018
Recently, some home appliances such as smart TVs and home gateways adopt virtualization technologies to perform the role of home cloud server and govern all connected devices efficiently. In such virtualized systems, it is important to satisfy the I/O performance SLO (Service Level Objective) of each VM. In this paper, we propose a novel write buffer management scheme for SSDs in home cloud server, which guarantees the SLO of each VM by mitigating write interference problem among the VMs. Experimental results clearly show that our scheme outperforms the conventional write buffer scheme in terms of I/O performance SLO of each VM.
