Abstract:This paper presents Hexa-SSD, a novel SSD-internal DRAM management scheme that allows the SSD capacity to scale beyond the slow growth of capacitors. Hexa-SSD judiciously manages the dirty memory footprint within the SSD-internal buffer by using a low-overhead data reordering scheme on the deep queues available in today's storage interfaces. In doing so, our design guarantees crash consistency while using a fraction of the capacitors compared to the state-of-the-art designs. We implement our design in FEMU and… Show more
