Abstract
A node includes at least one memory for use as a shared cache in a distributed cache. One or more other nodes on a network each provide a respective shared cache for the distributed cache. A request is received by a kernel of the node to access data in the shared cache and an Input/Output (I/O) queue is identified from among a plurality of I/O queues in a kernel space of the at least one memory for queuing the received request based on at least one of a priority indicated by the received request and an application that initiated the request. In another aspect, each I/O queue of the plurality of I/O queues corresponds to at least one of different respective priorities for requests to access data in the shared cache and different respective applications initiating requests to access data in the shared cache.
