Configuring partitions of a memory sub-system for different data

A system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processing device, operatively coupled to the memory, to perform operations comprising:
• receiving one or more parameters indicative of a request to segment a memory device of a memory sub-system into a plurality of partitions for use by a host system;
• and
• responsive to receiving the one or more parameters indicative of the request to segment the memory device into the plurality of partitions, determining one or more configuration settings for a first partition of the plurality of partitions based on the one or more parameters, wherein determining the one or more configuration settings for the first partition, comprises:
• determining a memory type from a plurality of memory types based on the one or more parameters, wherein the determined memory type defines a number of bits that a memory cell of the first partition is to store;
• and
• sending, to the memory sub-system, one or more commands to request the memory sub-system to be configured with the one or more configuration settings, wherein the one or more configuration settings identify that the first partition is to be configured as the determined memory type.

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a processing device, one or more parameters indicative of a request to segment a memory device into a plurality of partitions for use by a host system;
• and
• responsive to receiving the one or more parameters indicative of the request to segment the memory device into the plurality of partitions, configuring a first partition of the plurality of partitions with one or more configuration settings based on the one or more parameters, wherein configuring the first partition comprises:
• determining a memory type from a plurality of memory types based on the one or more parameters;
• and
• configuring the first partition of the plurality of partitions to operate as the determined memory type, wherein the determined memory type defines a number of bits that a memory cell of the first partition is to store.
