  • Techniques for data relocation based on access patterns
    Patent number: 9547459
    Abstract: Described are techniques for storing data. A data access pattern is identified for accessing a first set of data portions of a first logical device, wherein the data access pattern includes a time-ordered list of consecutively accessed logical addresses of the first logical device. The first set of data portions are arranged on a second logical device. The first set of data portions have corresponding logical addresses on the second logical device and such corresponding logical addresses have a consecutive sequential ordering based on the data access pattern. The first set of data portions are stored at physical device locations mapped to the corresponding logical addresses of the second logical device.
