librbd read caching

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Something in the back of my mind keeps saying that there were plans to implement read caching in librbd, but I haven't been able to find any reference about that.

In the tracker however I wasn't able to find anything, so it has to be me.

Any plans or ideas on this? A simple idea was that librbd could use a mmap where it caches RADOS objects and purges them on a write.

This cache could then live on an SSD on a hypervisor where it could speed up read operations for Virtual Machines in OpenStack or CloudStack envs. Something like FS-Cache for librbd.
