TARGETED SERVICE LEVEL RESPONSE TIME MANAGEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17958550 titled 'TARGETED SERVICE LEVEL RESPONSE TIME MANAGEMENT
Simplified Explanation
The cause of a failure to satisfy a high priority service level objective of a storage object or storage group is localized within a storage array. Storage objects that have been assigned low priority service level objectives are analyzed to determine whether their performance paths overlap with the performance path of the high priority service level objective storage object or storage group at the location of the cause of the failure. The low priority service level objective storage objects having performance paths that overlap with the performance path of the high priority service level objective storage object or storage group at the location of the cause of the failure are targeted for IO data rate reduction in order to free resources to restore compliance with the high priority service level objective. The other low priority service level objective storage objects are not targeted.
- The innovation involves analyzing storage objects with low priority service level objectives to identify performance path overlaps with high priority service level objective storage objects, allowing for targeted IO data rate reduction.
- By pinpointing the cause of failure within a storage array, resources can be efficiently allocated to restore compliance with high priority service level objectives.
- This technology optimizes storage performance by dynamically adjusting IO data rates based on priority levels, ensuring critical objectives are met.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in various industries where storage performance optimization is crucial, such as cloud computing, data centers, and enterprise storage solutions.
Problems Solved
1. Inefficient resource allocation in storage arrays leading to failure to meet high priority service level objectives. 2. Difficulty in identifying the root cause of performance failures within storage systems.
Benefits
1. Improved storage performance and reliability. 2. Enhanced resource utilization and allocation. 3. Increased efficiency in meeting high priority service level objectives.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing storage performance in cloud computing environments for improved service delivery and customer satisfaction.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of performance monitoring tools in storage systems to identify bottlenecks and optimize resource allocation.
