Abstract
Optimization of cached persistent volumes (PVs) is provided and includes receiving a first request for provisioning of a specific cached persistent volume (PV) within a first environment. The first request includes at least one specific directory path associated with a first dataset. A set of cached PVs is identified from a plurality of cached PVs based on a presence of a match between the first request and the set of cached PVs, and a sharing status associated with each cached PV of the plurality of cached PVs. A set of directory paths associated with the identified set of cached PVs is determined and a set of matching scores is generated based on the determined set of directory paths and the at least one specific directory path. An allocation of a cached PV of the set of cached PVs is controlled based on the generated set of matching scores.
