Abstract

A method, computer program product, and computer system for receiving, at a first computing device, a first data chunk sent from a second computing device. It may be determined that the first data chunk includes a first type of data. The first data chunk may be stored to a cache operatively coupled to the first computing device based upon, at least in part, determining that the first data chunk includes the first type of data, wherein the cache may include a first storage device type. An acknowledgement of a successful write of the first data chunk to the second computing device may be sent based upon, at least in part, a successful storing of the first data chunk to the cache operatively coupled to the first computing device.
