Abstract

A processing device of a storage server that manages a plurality of SSDs receives a request to write data. The processing device determines one or more attributes associated with the request, generates a stream tag for the request based on the one or more attributes, and sends a first write command to a first SSD of the plurality of SSDs. The first write command comprises at least a portion of the data and the stream tag that causes the first SSD to write the portion of the data to a first stream block of the first SSD.
