Abstract: The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for processing memory operation requests. In one aspect, a method is performed at a computing system having one or more processors and non-volatile memory: (1) obtaining a plurality of internal memory operation requests for the non-volatile memory, the plurality of internal memory operation requests originating from within the computing system; (2) obtaining a plurality of external memory operation requests for the non-volatile memory, the plurality of external memory operation requests originating from one or more devices remote and distinct from the computing system; and (3) regulating a rate at which the plurality of internal memory operation requests are transferred to the non-volatile memory based on an amount of external memory operation requests in the plurality of external memory requests.

Abstract: The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for caching data. In one aspect, a method is performed at a computing system having one or more processors and memory including a plurality of distinct memory types each assigned to a respective memory tier of a plurality of memory tiers based on a read latency of the memory type. The method includes: (1) identifying a plurality of extents, including a first extent, each of the extents comprising a respective set of related data stored within the memory; (2) determining a first read frequency for the first extent; and (3) storing the first extent in a particular memory tier of the plurality of distinct memory tiers based on the determined first read frequency.
