One or more embodiments of the present disclosure describe a storage system comprising a first storage medium, a second storage medium, and a controller configured to communicate with the first storage medium and the second storage medium. The controller is configured to receive a first request generated by a process associated with first data; determine that the first data is stored in the first storage medium; generate a signal based on the controller being configured to determine; identify a criterion based on the signal; select, based on the criterion, at least one of a first procedure or a second procedure for loading second data from the second storage medium to the first storage medium; and output the second data based on a second request generated by the process for the second data.

Systems and methods for managing a storage system

A method of operating a storage system may include allocating a first partition of a tier of storage resources to a first client, wherein the tier operates at least partially as a storage cache, allocating a second partition of the tier of the storage resources to a second client, monitoring a workload of the first client, monitoring a workload of the second client, and reallocating the first partition of the tier of the storage resources to the first client based on the monitored workload of the first client and the monitored workload of the second client. The method may further include reallocating the second partition of the tier of the storage resources to the second client based on the monitored workload of the first client and the monitored workload of the second client.
