Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an apparatus comprising a memory and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to: dynamically obtain a plurality of metadata from a global memory of a storage system; dynamically predict anticipated metadata based on the dynamically obtained metadata, wherein anticipated metadata is relevant to anticipated input/output (I/O) operations of the storage system; and dynamically instruct the storage system to load anticipated metadata into the global memory.
