Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure disclose systems and methods for managing a level-two persistent cache. In various aspects, a solid-state drive is employed as a level-two cache to expand the capacity of existing caches. Any data stored in the level-two cache may be stored in a particular version or format of data known as “raw” data, in contrast to storing the data in a “cooked” version, as is typically stored in a level-one cache.
