A request to launch an application that is comprised of a plurality of layers is received. Each layer of the plurality of layers of the application is comprised of one or more corresponding virtualization resource units. The one or more corresponding virtualization resource units at each of the plurality of layers of the application is expressed as a resource ratio. It is determined that a surplus of resources is available for one or more applications. In response to determining that the surplus of resources is available for one or more applications, a priority associated with the application is determined. A version of the application is launched based on the determined priority associated with the application. The launched version of the application maintains the resource ratio.

Scaling virtualization resource units of applications

Enabling a protocol for efficiently and reliably using the NVME protocol over a network, referred to as NVME over Network, or NVMEoN, may include an NVMEoN exchange layer for handling exchanges between initiating and target nodes on a network, a burst transmission protocol that provides guaranteed delivery without duplicate retransmission, and an exchange status block approach to manage state information about exchanges.

System resource utilizations by one or more core functionalities of a data storage system is monitored. A system resource allocation for one or more applications of the data storage system is determined based at least in part on the monitored system resource utilizations. A number of virtualization resource units allocated to at least one of the one or more applications is scaled based at least in part on the determined system resource allocation. The number of virtualization resource units allocated to the at least one of the one or more applications is based on a corresponding ratio associated with the at least one of the one or more applications.

A distributed flexible scheduler that dynamically balances network and storage traffic across links is proposed. The scheduler takes into account the bandwidth requirements of workloads provisioned in a cluster and dynamically distributes the network traffic and the storage traffic accordingly. There are three schemes involved in the proposed distributed flexible scheduler. In a first approach of Equal Distribution, network and storage traffic is distributed evenly across the links. In a second approach of Storage Preferred distribution, the aggregate storage bandwidth requirements of workloads exceed the network bandwidth requirements. In a third approach of Network Preferred distribution, the aggregate network bandwidth requirements of workloads exceed the storage bandwidth requirements.
