Abstract
An approach is disclosed that caches distant memories within the storage a local node. The approach provides a memory caching infrastructure that supports virtual addressing by utilizing memory in the local node as a cache of distant memories for data granules. The data granules are accessed along with metadata and an ECC associated with the data granule. The metadata is updated to indicate storage of the selected data granule in the cache.
