Abstract

A data storage subsystem includes a data storage array and a host device in communication with the data storage array. Applications on servers and user terminals communicate with the host to access data maintained by the storage array. In order to enhance performance, the host includes a cache resource and a computer program including cache configuration logic which determines whether an IO received from an application is associated with a predetermined type of business process, and configures the cache resource to store data associated with the received IO where it is determined that the IO is associated with the predetermined type of business process, thereby enabling the data to be available directly from the host without accessing the storage subsystem in response to a subsequent Read request.
