Claim 11:
12. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing instructions that cause a processing device to perform operations comprising:
receiving, in a virtualized execution environment, a data access request from a storage system;
identifying, in view of a virtualized execution image associated with the virtualized execution environment, an application running in the virtualized execution environment;
generating, based on a past data access pattern of a previous execution of the application, a cache classification that specifies whether data accessed by the application is suitable for cache compression;
including, in the data access request, a tag indicating whether cached data is to be accessed in a compressed-memory cache, wherein the tag is determined in view of the cache classification; and
sending, to a server of the storage system, the data access request.
