METHODS FOR MANAGING INPUT-OUTPUT OPERATIONS IN ZONE TRANSLATION LAYER ARCHITECTURE AND DEVICES THEREOF

Abstract:

The disclosed technology relates to determining physical zone data within a zoned namespace solid state drive (SSD), associated with logical zone data included in a first received input-output operation based on a mapping data structure within a namespace of the zoned namespace SSD. A second input-output operation specific to the determined physical zone data is generated wherein the second input-output operation and the received input-output operation is of a same type. The generated second input-output operation is completed using the determined physical zone data within the zoned namespace SSD.
