Abstract

This application relates to the field of storage technologies, and discloses a storage controller. The storage controller includes a distribution core, a plurality of ranking cores, and a request processing core. The three types of cores are respectively configured to: distribute IO requests to different ranking cores, generate a processing ranking index for each IO request, and process the IO request based on a value of the processing ranking index of the IO request, to flexibly schedule an IO request received by the storage controller.
