Abstract

The computer detects a request from a first computer to store a data item, and determines if a volatile memory in a second computer comports with an isolation rule for the data item. In response to determining that the volatile memory in the second computer comports with the isolation rule for the data item, the computer compares access time for data in the volatile memory in the second computer with access time for data in a local hard drive in the first computer, and then selectively stores the data item in a storage location that has a lower access time. The computer establishes a threshold resource consumption rate for both the volatile memory in the second computer and the local hard drive in the first computer to further select the volatile memory in the second computer or the local hard drive in the first computer to store the data item.
