LeaFTL: A Learning-Based Flash Translation Layer for Solid-State Drives

Abstract

In modern solid-state drives (SSDs), the indexing of flash pages is a critical component in their storage controllers. It not only affects the data access performance, but also determines the efficiency of the precious in-device DRAM resource. A variety of address mapping schemes and optimizations have been proposed. However, most of them were developed with human-driven heuristics.
