Abstract: This application discloses a data writing method. A network controller performs erasure code encoding on original data, and writes a third quantity of target data blocks of a plurality of obtained target data blocks into a storage node. The network controller reads a first quantity of target data blocks of the third quantity of the target data blocks from the storage node, and decodes the read target data blocks. The plurality of target data blocks include a first quantity of original data blocks and a second quantity of check data blocks, two ends of a target data block include same version information, and the third quantity is greater than the first quantity.

Abstract: A storage system includes multiple storage nodes. Each storage node includes a first storage device of a first type and a second storage device of a second type, and a performance level of the first storage device is higher than the second storage device. The globe cache includes a first tier comprising the first storage device in each storage node, and a second tier comprising the second storage device in each storage node. The first tier is for storing data with a high access frequency, and the second tier is for storing data with a low access frequency. The management node monitors an access frequency of target data stored in the first tier. When the access frequency of the target data is lower than a threshold, the management node instructs the first storage node to migrate the target data from the first tier to the second tier.

Abstract: A read/write request processing method and server are provided. In this method, each terminal is grouped, and different service durations are assigned for all terminal groups, so that a server can process, within any service duration, only a read/write request sent by a terminal in a terminal group corresponding to the service duration. According to the application, a cache area of a network interface card of the server is enabled to store only limited quantities of queue pairs (QPs) and work queue elements (WQEs), thereby preventing uneven resource distribution in the cache area of the network interface card.

Abstract: A storage system includes a management node and multiple storage nodes. Each storage node includes a first storage device of a first type (e.g., DRAM) and a second storage device of a second type (e.g., SCM), and a performance level of the first storage device is higher than the second storage device. The management node creates a globe cache including a first tier comprising the first storage device in each storage node, and a second tier comprising the second storage device in each storage node. The first tier is for storing data with a high access frequency, and the second tier is for storing data with a low access frequency. The management node monitors an access frequency of target data stored in the first tier. When the access frequency of the target data is lower than a threshold, the management node instructs the first storage node to migrate the target data from the first tier to the second tier of the globe cache.

Abstract: Task execution methods and devices are provided. In an implementation, a method comprises: obtaining, by a central processing unit of a storage device, a data processing task, dividing, by the central processing unit, the data processing task into subtasks, and allocating, by the central processing unit, a first subtask in the subtasks to a first dedicated processor based on attributes of the subtasks, wherein the first dedicated processor is one of a plurality of dedicated processors of the storage device.

Abstract: A metadata processing method includes a network interface card in a storage device that receives an input/output (I/O) request, where the I/O request includes a data read request or a data write request; the network interface card executes a metadata processing task corresponding to the I/O request; and when determining that the metadata processing task fails to be executed, the network interface card requests a CPU in the storage device to execute the metadata processing task.

Abstract: A method and a system for controlling quality of service of a storage system, and a storage system. The method includes: collecting information about processing capabilities of the hard disks in the storage system and obtaining processing capabilities of the hard disks according to the information about processing capabilities; dividing a cache into multiple cache tiers according to the processing capabilities of the hard disks; and writing, for a cache tier in which dirty data reaches a preset threshold, data in the cache tier into at least one hard disk corresponding to the cache tier. The method avoids a phenomenon of preempting page resources in the cache.
