ABSTRACT:
Exemplary systems, methods, and devices dynamically characterize a portion of a total cache as a read cache or a write cache in response to a host workload. Exemplary systems, methods, and devices receive a host workload parameter and allocate cache memory to either of a read cache or a write cache based on the host workload parameter.
