Abstract
A method of accepting writes in a multilayered storage system is provided. The method includes (a) monitoring a rate of flushing of data from a first data storage component to a second data storage component; (b) setting an intake rate for the first data storage component based on the monitored flushing rate; and (c) throttling writes to the first data storage component based on the set intake rate. An apparatus, system, and computer program product for performing a similar method are also provided.
