Dynamic instantiation and management of virtual caching appliances

It is detected that a metric associated with a first workload has breached a first threshold. It is determined that the first workload and a second workload access the same storage resources, wherein the storage resources are associated with a storage server. It is determined that the metric is impacted by the first workload and the second workload accessing the same storage resources. A candidate solution is identifier. An estimated impact of a residual workload is determined based, at least in part, on the candidate solution. A level of caching of at least one of the first workload or the second workload is adjusted based, at least in part, on the estimated impact of the residual workload.

Sector cache for compression

In an example, an apparatus comprises a plurality of execution units, and a cache memory communicatively coupled to the plurality of execution units, wherein the cache memory is structured into a plurality of sectors, wherein each sector in the plurality of sectors comprises at least two cache lines. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

Management platform recovery for a user device

Examples described here include systems and methods for refreshing the operating system (“OS”) of a device enrolled in a management platform. Execution of a first command file ensures that necessary components of the management platform residing on the device are stored in a partitioned portion of the device hard drive to preserve them during the OS refresh. After a new instance of the OS has been installed, execution of a second command file migrates the necessary components from the partitioned portion of the hard drive to the new OS instance. When the user logs back into the refreshed device, a third command file installs all necessary device management components at the new OS instance and re-enrolls the device with the management platform. In this manner, the OS of a managed device can be refreshed and re-enrolled in the management platform without significant input from a user or administrator.

DRAINING A WRITE QUEUE BASED ON INFORMATION FROM A READ QUEUE
20170315914 · 2017-11-02 ·

A method to access a memory chip having memory banks includes processing read requests in a read queue, and when a write queue is filled beyond a high watermark, stopping the processing of the read requests in the read queue and draining the write queue until the write queue is under a low watermark. Draining the write queue include issuing write requests in an order based on information in the read queue. When the write queue is under the low watermark, the method includes stopping the draining of the write queue and again processing the read requests in the read queue.

DATA CACHING
20170315737 · 2017-11-02 ·

Methods, systems, and devices for operating a memory device are described. One method includes caching data of a memory cell at a sense amplifier of a row buffer upon performing a first read of the memory cell; determining to perform at least a second read of the memory cell after performing the first read of the memory cell; and reading the data of the memory cell from the sense amplifier for at least the second read of the memory cell.
