Examples include a method of managing storage for triggered operations. The method includes receiving a request to allocate a triggered operation; if there is a free triggered operation, allocating the free triggered operation; if there is no free triggered operation, recovering one or more fired triggered operations, freeing one or more of the recovered triggered operations, and allocating one of the freed triggered operations; configuring the allocated triggered operation; and storing the configured triggered operation in a cache on an input/output (I/O) device for subsequent asynchronous execution of the configured triggered operation.
