Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method for managing data includes determining that a cache access count for a given data block is greater than an average cache access count, receiving a list of active applications accessing the given data block with an anticipated access count for each active application, receiving a list of applications that are anticipated to access the given data block within a time window with an anticipated future access count for each anticipated application, determining that a block application access weight is greater than a block application access threshold, determining that a cache profile weight for the given data block is greater than zero, and sending the cache profile weight to a file system. Other systems, methods, and computer program products are described according to more embodiments.
