Abstract
A technique for managing a storage system involves determining, in response to a first write operation on a first data block on a persistent storage device, whether a first group of data corresponding to the first data block is included in a cache; updating the first group of data in the cache if it is determined that the first group of data is included in the cache; and adding the first group of data to an associated data set of the cache to serve as a first record. Accordingly, such a technique can associatively manage different types of cached data corresponding to a data block, thereby optimizing the system performance.
