Abstract
A method includes receiving data objects for storage in at least one or more first storage devices characterized by a first write endurance, and one or more second storage devices characterized by a second write endurance that is lower than the first write endurance. Respective write-activity levels are estimated for the data objects. For each data object, a choice is made whether to store the data object in the first storage devices or in the second storage devices based on an estimated write-activity level of the data object. The data object is stored in the chosen storage devices.
