Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure configure a memory sub-system controller to allow a host to configure data storage policies on the memory sub-system. The controller receives, from a host, a data storage policy instruction, the data storage policy instruction defining how data is stored on a set of memory components. The controller updates configuration information for the memory sub-system based on the data storage policy instruction received from the host and controls storage of data to the set of memory components based on the updated configuration information.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a set of memory components of a memory sub-system;
- and
- at least one processing device operatively coupled to the set of memory components, the at least one processing device being configured to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, from a host, a data storage policy instruction, the data storage policy instruction defining how data is stored on the set of memory components;
- updating configuration information for the memory sub-system based on the data storage policy instruction received from the host;
- and
- controlling storage of data to the set of memory components based on the updated configuration information.
A method comprising:
- receiving, from a host, a data storage policy instruction, the data storage policy instruction defining how data is stored on a set of memory components;
- updating configuration information for a memory sub-system based on the data storage policy instruction received from the host;
- and
- controlling storage of data to the set of memory components based on the updated configuration information.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processing device, cause the at least one processing device to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, from a host, a data storage policy instruction, the data storage policy instruction defining how data is stored on a set of memory components;
- updating configuration information for a memory sub-system based on the data storage policy instruction received from the host;
- and
- controlling storage of data to the set of memory components based on the updated configuration information.
