Evolutionary Storage: Speeding up a Magnetic Disk by Clustering Frequent Data

摘要

To counteract the performance degradation in magnetic disks, it is proposed to develop an evolutionary storage system that is evolving over time. The frequent data is clustered and moved to a flash memory. A large disk trace, collected from real systems, has been used. The experimental results showed that the performance speedup due to the disk reorganization is 4.0
