Abstract
Techniques are provided for managing metadata of a storage system. A storage control system manages a storage metadata structure which comprises metadata items for accessing data items in a storage system comprising a persistent write cache and a primary storage. The storage metadata structure comprises a first metadata structure that is configured to organize metadata items received from the write cache at a first granularity, and a second metadata structure that is configured to organize metadata items received from the first metadata structure at a second granularity, wherein the second granularity is greater than the first granularity. The storage control system utilizes the storage metadata structure to access data items in the persistent write cache and the primary storage.
