METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONDENSED CACHE AND ACCELERATION LAYER INTEGRATED IN SERVERS

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable media for operating a cache drive in a data storage system. The methods include receiving, from an IO interface in the cache drive of the compute server, a write request to write data; caching the data corresponding to the write request in a cache storage of the cache drive of the compute server; performing one or more compute processes on the data; and in response to performing the one or more compute processes on the data, providing the processed data to a storage cluster for storing via the IO interface that is communicatively coupled to the storage cluster.
