Systems and methods disclosed herein are used to efficiently configure a plurality of memory caches. In one aspect, a method includes a server receiving or accessing a storage policy including a first caching mode for a first set of one or more virtual machine elements and a second caching mode for a second set of one or more virtual machine elements. If a virtual machine element requires configuration, the server determines whether the virtual machine element is a virtual machine element of the first set or the second set. If the virtual machine element is a virtual machine element of the first set, the server applies the first caching mode to a section of a logical solid state drive. If the virtual machine element is a virtual machine element of the second set, the server applies the second caching mode to the section of the logical solid state drive.

Multi-host configuration for virtual machine caching

A cache automation module detects the deployment of storage resources in a virtual computing environment and, in response, automatically configures cache services for the detected storage resources. The automation module may detect new storage resources by monitoring storage operations and/or requests, by use of an interface provided by virtualization infrastructure, and/or the like. The cache automation module may deterministically identify storage resources that are to be cached and automatically caching services for the identified storage resources.
