Abstract
A host-based memory is maintained for a host computing device. Data obtained from a storage array in response to one or more read requests is stored in the host-based memory. The storage array includes an array-based memory and is configured to perform one or more data pre-fetch operations. The host computing device monitors for the occurrence of a set of sequential read requests. The set of sequential read requests is sent from the host computing device to the storage array when one or more read requests of the set of sequential read requests match data stored in the host-based memory. Thus, the storage array is enabled to perform one or more data pre-fetch operations in accordance with the array-based memory and the set of sequential read requests.
