    Abstract: A storage system includes solid-state storage devices and a storage controller operatively coupled to the solid-state storage devices, the storage controller including a processing device, to store sets of data at one or more solid-state storage devices of the plurality of solid-state storage devices. The processing device may also generate tags for each of the sets of data based on one or more metadata items associated with each set of data. The processing device may also determine an expected lifespan for each set of data based on the one or more tags generated for the respective set of data. The processing device may also group each of the one or more sets of data into respective ones of a plurality of memory blocks based on the expected lifespan for each set of data, wherein each memory block corresponds to sets of data of a particular expected lifespan.

    Abstract: A method of decommissioning a key in a decryption storage system includes scanning a storage system to identify metadata associated with a current key to be decommissioned. The method further includes encrypting, with the current key, data corresponding to the metadata to generate encrypted data. The method further includes decrypting the encrypted data with a target key to generate decrypted data. The method further includes modifying, by a processing device, the metadata to identify the target key to generate modified metadata. The method further includes storing the decrypted data and the modified metadata to the storage system.
