Abstract
The disclosure provides an approach for implementing a deduplicated (DD) assisted caching policy for a content based read cache (CBRC). Embodiments include receiving a first input/output (I/O) to write first data in storage as associated with a first logical block address (LBA); when the first data is located in a CBRC or in a DD cache located in memory, incrementing a first deduplication counter associated with the first data; when the first data is located in neither the CBRC nor the DD cache, creating the first deduplication counter; when the first deduplication counter meets a threshold after incrementing, and the first data is not located in the DD cache, adding the first data to the DD cache; and writing the first data to the storage as associated with the first LBA.
