Abstract
A shared cache memory can be logically partitioned among different workloads to provide isolation between workloads and avoid excessive resource contention. Each logical partition is apportioned a share of the cache memory, and is exclusive to a respective one of the workloads. Each partition has an initial size allocation. Historical data can be collected and processed for each partition and used to periodically update its size allocation.
