Abstract:
A method and apparatus for using cache size estimations for guiding hot-tier insertion decisions. The method and apparatus include an adaptive management element that determines what accesses of a resource should be logged and the parameters for logging. The determinations are used to configure an adaptive logging element to log only accesses corresponding to the selected resource(s) and to log only those accesses that match the identified parameters. The adaptive management element operates in a feedback loop: first determining what will be logged and second implementing that determination by an adaptive logging element. Upon a triggering event, the process returns to the first determination based on any then current parameters. In some embodiments, the parameters include a size estimate to achieve a given target hit rate (target hit rate size estimate) that is used in generating a score or weighting to identify the highest/best scoring/weighted disk(s) for logging.

Claim (Index 11):
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions which, when executed by a processor causes a process comprising:\n selecting, for logging an access request, a vDisk of a plurality of vDisks to manage placement of data into a hot storage tier, wherein the vDisk is selected for logging based on vDisk metadata and a target hit rate size estimate; and as a result of at least selecting the vDisk for logging the access request:\n generating an entry in an activity log for an access request to the vDisk, and \n placing corresponding data into the hot storage tier for the vDisk based at least in part on the entry corresponding to the access request in the activity log.
