Considering the current price gap between disk and flash memory drives, for applications
dealing with large scale data, it will be economically more sensible to use flash memory …

The use of flash memory as a write cache for a database stored on magnetic disks has been
so far largely ignored. In this paper, we explore how flash memory can be efficiently used for …

Host-side flash caching has lately emerged as a suitable and effective means of
accelerating enterprise workloads. However, cache management for flash-based caching is …

In order to meet the stringent requirements of low latency as well as high throughput, web
service providers with large data centers have been replacing magnetic disk drives with …

In this paper we present our work in progress on revisiting traditional DBMS mechanisms to
manage space on native Flash and how it is administered by the DBA. Our observations and …

When replacing a dirty victim page upon page miss, the conventional buffer managers flush
the dirty victim first to the storage before reading the missing page. This read-after-write …

Due to its superiority such as low access latency, low energy consumption, light weight, and
shock resistance, the success of flash memory as a storage alternative for mobile computing …

The database architecture and workhorse algorithms have been designed to compensate
for hard disk properties. The I/O characteristics of Flash memories have significant impact on …

We design and implement FD-Buffer, a buffer manager for database systems running on
flash-based disks. Unlike magnetic disks, flash media has an inherent read-write asymmetry …
