Abstract
In techniques for flushing data, based on a maturity level of a storage segment, the storage segment is inserted into a list to be flushed corresponding to the maturity level in a plurality of lists to be flushed, the plurality of lists to be flushed respectively correspond to different maturity levels, and the maturity level at least indicates a proportion of the number of data-written blocks to the total number of blocks of the storage segment; and the list to be flushed for the corresponding maturity level in the plurality of lists to be flushed is flushed to a disk array according to a descending order of the maturity levels. In this way, the bandwidth utilization of the disk array can be improved.
