Abstract

An apparatus comprises a processing device configured to receive a write request to write a given portion of data to a storage system comprising a multiple-instance write cache, the multiple-instance write cache comprising a first write cache instance that utilizes replica-based data protection and a second write cache instance that utilizes data striping-based data protection, and to determine a size of the given data portion and to compare the size of the given data portion to at least one size threshold. The processing device is also configured, responsive to a first comparison result, to write the given data portion to the first write cache instance. The processing device is further configured, responsive to a second comparison result different than the first comparison result, to write at least part of the given data portion to the second write cache instance.
