Abstract
Systems and methods for optimizing read operations from a storage device in a virtualized computing environment are provided. One method comprises monitoring read operations issued by an application running on a virtual machine's (VM) operating system, wherein the VM is hosted by a hypervisor providing access to a storage device in a virtualized computing environment; and causing a virtual file system (VFS) supported by the operating system to call on a first para-virtualized file system (PVFS FE) supported by the operating system to execute a read operation, in response to determining that the read operation is for reading target data from the storage device.
