Abstract
Systems and/or methods that facilitate data management on a memory device are presented. A data management component can log and tag data creating data tags. The data tags can comprise static metadata, dynamic metadata or a combination thereof. The data management component can perform file management to allocate placement of data and data tags to the memory or to erase data from the memory. Allocation and erasure are based in part on the characteristics of the data tags, and can follow embedded rules, an intelligent component or a combination thereof. The data management component can provide a search activity that can utilize the characteristics of the data tags and an intelligent component. The data management component can thereby optimize the useful life, increase operating speed, improve accuracy and precision, improve efficiency of non-volatile (e.g., flash) memory and provide improved functionality to memory devices.
