Memory input/output management

Abstract:

A system for managing memory input/output management is provided herein. The system may include a processor and a memory storing machine-readable instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the system to perform operations including receiving read requests for first data stored on a solid-state storage drive, receiving write requests for second data to be stored on the storage drive, placing at least some of the read requests in a first queue, placing at least some of the write requests in a second queue, the second queue having a size limit, processing data at a disk driver layer from the first queue and the second queue in a manner such that selection of a request from either queue is biased towards the first queue. Associated methods are also included.
