Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, can perform data caching. In some implementations, a method and system include receiving information that includes a logical address, allocating a physical page in a non-volatile memory structure, mapping the logical address to a physical address of the physical page, and writing, based on the physical address, data to the non-volatile memory structure to cache information associated with the logical address. The logical address can include an identifier of a data storage device and a logical page number.
