An apparatus includes a cache controller, the cache controller to receive, from a requestor, a memory access request referencing a memory address of a memory. The cache controller may identify a cache entry associated with the memory address, and responsive to determining that a first data item stored in the cache entry matches a data pattern indicating cache entry invalidity, read a second data item from a memory location identified by the memory address. The cache controller may then return, to the requestor, a response comprising the second data item.

Systems and methods for determining an access pattern in a computing system. Accesses to a file may contain random accesses and sequential accesses. The file may be divided into multiple regions and the accesses to each region are tracked. The access pattern for each region can then be determined independently of the access patterns of other regions of the file.

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for utilizing an extended cache to access an object store efficiently. An embodiment operates by executing a database transaction, thereby causing pages to be written from a buffer cache to an extended cache and to an object store. The embodiment determines a transaction type of the database transaction. The transaction type can a read-only transaction or an update transaction. The embodiment determines a phase of the database transaction based on the determined transaction type. The phase can be an execution phase or a commit phase. The embodiment then applies a caching policy to the extended cache for the evicted pages based on the determined transaction type of the database transaction and the determined phase of the database transaction.

Methods, apparatus, and processor-readable storage media for automatically processing storage system data and generating visualizations representing differential data comparisons are provided herein. An example computer-implemented method includes obtaining current data from a first storage system and historical data from the first storage system and/or one or more additional storage systems; determining, for the first storage system, at least one current state value for at least one storage system parameter by processing the current data using a first hashing algorithm; determining, for the first storage system with respect to the first storage system and/or the additional storage systems, at least one differential state value for the at least one storage system parameter by processing the current data and the historical data using a second hashing algorithm; and generating data visualizations based on the current state value(s) and/or the differential state value(s).

An electronic device includes a cache memory and a controller. The cache memory includes a set of cache blocks, each cache block having a number of locations usable for storing cache lines. The cache memory also includes a separate set of error correction code (ECC) bits for each of the locations. The controller stores a victim cache line, evicted from a first location in the cache block, in a second location in the cache block. The controller next stores victim reference information in a portion of the plurality of ECC bits for the first location, the victim reference information indicating that the victim cache line is stored in the second location.

A system includes a first memory device having a region allocated as a first persistent memory region (PMR) having a first set of pages, a second memory device comprising a non-volatile memory device having a region allocated as a second PMR region having a second set of pages, and at least one processing device, operatively coupled to the first memory device and the second memory device, to implement a PMR mechanism to cause the second PMR region to be accessible through the first PMR region.
