Everything about Cache Acceleration Software
Open Cache Acceleration Software, formerly Intel Cache Acceleration Software, is computer data storage software for solid-state drive (SSD) caching. CAS manages SSD storage as a cache layer for slower backend storage, keeping a cached copy of recently used data in faster SSD storage to improve I/O performance. Wikipedia →
