Abstract
Techniques for cache management involve accessing, when a first data block to be accessed is missing in a first cache, the first data block from a storage device storing the first data block; selecting, when the first cache is full and based on a plurality of parameters associated with a plurality of eviction policies, an eviction policy for evicting a data block in the first cache from the plurality of eviction policies, the plurality of parameters indicating corresponding possibilities that the plurality of eviction policies are selected; evicting a second data block in the first cache to a second cache based on the selected eviction policy, the second cache being configured to record the data block evicted from the first cache; and caching the accessed first data block in the first cache. Such techniques can improve the cache hit rate, thereby improving the access performance of a system.
