Abstract

Methods for data placement in a memory-based file system are described, including copying a user data unit from a second storage type device to a first storage type device based on an access request to the file system, the first storage type device being a faster access device than the second storage type device, referencing the user data unit in the first storage type device by a byte addressable memory pointer, and using the byte addressable memory pointer to copy the user data unit from the first storage type device to the second storage type device based on data access pattern.
