Abstract

In one example, a method for writing data includes receiving a write request and performing a first type of logging process in connection with the write request, and creating a corresponding first logging record. Additionally, a second type of logging process is performed in connection with the write request, and a corresponding second logging record created, where the second type of logging process is different from the first type of logging process. Next, a determination is made, as between the two logging records, which of the logging records requires the least amount of non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM), and the logging record that requires the least amount of NVRAM is written to the NVRAM.
