Flashield is a hybrid DRAM+SSD key‑value cache that uses DRAM as a filter and a lightweight SVM classifier (features: past reads and updates) to admit only “flashy” objects to SSD, writing them large and sequential to cut device wear. It stores variable‑size items with a compact index that costs 4 bytes per object, uses per‑segment Bloom filters and up to 8 hash probes, and achieves a median write amplification 0.5× on Memcachier traces while keeping hit rate and throughput comparable to DRAM-only caches.
