ABSTRACT:
Provided are techniques for cache management. An incoming request to access a first data block is received. A probability of how likely a second data block may be accessed based on the access of the first data block is determined. Whether the probability exceeds a read ahead threshold is determined. The second data block is prefetched in response to determining that the probability exceeds the read ahead threshold.
