Abstract
One or more aspects of the present disclosure relate to dynamically pre-allocating cache slots based on workload forecasting. In embodiments, characteristics corresponding to one or more input/output (IO) operations received by a storage array are determined. An IO workload for one or more cache segments of system memory of the storage array is also forecasted. In addition, a queue depth for each cache pool of the one or more cache segments is dynamically adjusted. Further, cache slots are dynamically pre-allocated to each cache pool based on the queue depth of each cache pool.
