Possible Questions from Designers

How our workloads generate writes to storage?
1. Temporal behavior of write request pattern
2. The most dominant data size written
3. Virtual address space used by OS
4. File metadata update pattern

What about hardware resource access pattern?
1. Resource utilized efficiently
2. Do we need consider wear-leveling?
Juyoung Jung
University of Pittsburgh
TPC-C File update pattern
Temporal behavior of writes
Populating 9 relational tables
writes are very bursty
proper queue size
(Wall-clock time)
Juyoung Jung
University of Pittsburgh
File Data Written Size
4KB written size dominant
Not cause whole block update

Virtual Page Reuse Pattern
