Abstract
The present disclosure relates to techniques for providing data redundancy after reducing memory writes. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a storage system receives a storage command for providing data redundancy in accordance with a first data redundancy scheme. The storage system then implements a subsequent data redundancy in accordance with a second data redundancy scheme.
Claims17
A storage system comprising:
- a memory;
- a communication bus coupled to a storage device;
- and
- a central processor communicatively coupled to the communication bus and the memory, the central processor configured to
- receive a storage command for providing data redundancy;
- implement the data redundancy by receiving and reducing a number of writes in accordance with a first data redundancy scheme;
- implement a subsequent data redundancy in accordance with a second data redundancy scheme, the first data redundancy scheme differing from the second data redundancy scheme;
- and
- re-format the storage command from a first format compatible with the first data redundancy scheme into a second format compatible with the second data redundancy scheme.
6 more elements
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a storage controller, a storage command for providing data redundancy;
- implementing, by the storage controller, the data redundancy by receiving and reducing a number of writes in accordance with a first data redundancy scheme;
- implementing, by the storage controller, a subsequent data redundancy in accordance with a second data redundancy scheme, the first data redundancy scheme differing from the second data redundancy scheme;
- and
- re-formatting, by the storage controller, the storage command from a first format compatible with the first data redundancy scheme into a second format compatible with the second data redundancy scheme.
2 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable medium having processor-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
- receive a storage command for providing data redundancy;
- implement the data redundancy by receiving and reducing a number of writes in accordance with a first data redundancy scheme;
- implement a subsequent data redundancy in accordance with a second data redundancy scheme, the first data redundancy scheme differing from the second data redundancy scheme;
- and
- re-format the storage command from a first format compatible with the first data redundancy scheme into a second format compatible with the second data redundancy scheme.
