An information processing apparatus performs first migration processing of migrating data from a relatively-old-generation magnetic tape included in one storage pool of a plurality of storage pools to relatively-new-generation magnetic tapes included in each of the plurality of storage pools in a case where a total value of free capacities of the relatively-new-generation magnetic tapes in each of the plurality of storage pools is equal to or larger than a threshold value, and performs second migration processing of migrating data from a plurality of migration-source magnetic tapes included in the storage pool to migration-destination magnetic tapes of which the number is smaller than the number of the migration-source magnetic tapes in a case where the total value is smaller than the threshold value.

An apparatus comprising an input to couple to a negative voltage source; and circuitry to detect whether the input has crossed a negative voltage threshold, wherein the circuitry comprises a first capacitor that is selectively coupled to the first input and a second capacitor that is selectively coupled to a second input coupled to a positive voltage source.

A method for memory access may include receiving, at a device, a first memory access request for a parallel workload, receiving, at the device, a second memory access request for the parallel workload, processing, by a first logical device of the device, the first memory access request, and processing, by a second logical device of the device, the second memory access request. Processing the first memory access request and processing the second memory access request may include parallel processing the first and second memory access requests. The first logical device may include one or more first resources. The method may further include configuring the first logical device based on one or more first parameters of the parallel workload. The method may further include allocating one or more first resources to the first logical device based on at least one of the one or more first parameters of the parallel workload.

A reconfigurable compute fabric of a system can include multiple nodes, and each node can include multiple, communicatively coupled tiles with respective processing and storage elements. In an example, a tile-based processor can be configured to perform operations comprising receiving a first stencil that defines input data for a first operation. The stencil can have a height corresponding to N rows in a main memory and a stencil width corresponding to M columns in the main memory. The processor can perform operations comprising establishing N buffers in a tile memory, each buffer having M buffer elements, and populating the M buffer elements of the N buffers using respective information, defined by the first stencil, from the main memory. Tile-based stencil operations can use information from the N buffers and provide compute results in an output array.

An illustrative method includes receiving a write request to write payload data to a virtual storage volume; transmitting the write request to a plurality of storage nodes each storing a replica of the virtual storage volume; acknowledging the write request only after a quorum of the storage nodes has stored the payload in their respective kernel memory; and flushing the payloads stored in each kernel memory to persistent storage only after a threshold number of outstanding write requests that have been acknowledged, but not yet flushed, has been reached, the flushing configured to optimize performance for synchronous workloads.

Methods, systems, and devices for techniques for managing temporarily retired blocks of a memory system are described. In some examples, aspects of a memory system or memory device may be configured to determine an error for a block of memory cells. For example, a controller may determine an existence of the error and may temporarily retire the block. A media management operation may be performed on the temporarily retired block and, depending on one or more characteristics of the error, the temporarily retired block may be enabled or retired.

A vehicle memory sub-system can be switched from a normal mode to a pre-shutdown mode and initiate a media management operation before shutting down. The mode switch and/or media management operation can be performed in response to receiving a shutdown or pre-shutdown command for the vehicle. After completion of the memory management operation the vehicle and/or memory sub-system can be shutdown.

A storage device according to the present technology may include a memory device for storing data, a buffer memory configured to temporarily store data to be stored in the memory device, and a memory controller configured to determine a delay time based on a plurality of parameters upon receipt of a write request from a host, and transmit a data request to the host after the delay time has elapsed.

A memory controller, a memory system and a method of operating a memory controller controlling a memory device are described. The memory controller may include a workload manager in communication with the memory device in which data is written and is read, the workload manager configured to acquire an amount of write data written to the memory device during a preset reference time, calculate a workload parameter indicating a ratio of the amount of write data to a reference write amount, and store the workload parameter for the preset reference time, and a performance manager configured to control, based on the workload parameter, a certain background operation performed by the memory device during a period corresponding to the workload parameter.

Computer-implemented methods for optimized compute resource addition and removal in a distributed storage platform. In a case of a newly added compute resource being connected to a storage subsystem shared by compute resources in the distributed storage platform, the distributed storage platform formulates a redistribution plan to redistribute a subset of a global address space of the storage subsystem to a newly added logical volume in the storage subsystem. In a case of a removed compute resource being disconnected from the storage subsystem, the distributed storage platform formulates a redistribution plan to redistribute respective logical blocks in a logical volume for the removed compute resource to respective remaining logical volumes for respective remaining compute resources in the distributed storage platform. The distributed storage platform executes the redistribution plan to reassign data block ownerships on one or more physical memory devices in the storage subsystem.
