Summary:Techniques are provided for implementing and managing a multi-modal write cache for a data storage system. For example, a storage control system is configured to perform a write caching method which comprises the storage control system receiving an input/output (I/O) write request from a client application to write data to a primary storage volume, comparing a current I/O workload associated with the client application to an I/O workload threshold, and writing the data of the I/O write request to one of (i) a persistent write cache in a persistent storage volume and (ii) a non-persistent write cache in a non-persistent storage volume, based at least in part on a result of comparing the current I/O workload to the I/O workload threshold.
