FAST '24 - OmniCache: Collaborative Caching for Near-storage Accelerators

Jian Zhang and Yujie Ren, Rutgers University; Marie Nguyen, Samsung; Changwoo Min, Igalia; Sudarsun Kannan, Rutgers University

We propose OmniCache, a novel caching design for near-storage accelerators that combines near-storage and host memory capabilities to accelerate I/O and data processing. First, OmniCache introduces a "near-cache" approach, maximizing data access to the nearest cache for I/O and processing operations. Second, OmniCache presents collaborative caching for concurrent I/O and data processing using host …
