Abstract
An example method to provide a storage service in a virtualized computing environment may include obtaining network latency information associated with various hosts in the virtualized computing environment. In response to identifying a first network latency value that exceeds a threshold, wherein the first network latency is between the first host and a second host in the virtualized computing environment, the method includes placing the second host in a first cohesive cluster consisting of the second host. In response to identifying a second network latency value being less than or equal to the threshold, wherein the second network latency value is between the first host and a third host in the virtualized computing environment, the method includes grouping the first host and the third host in a second cohesive cluster. The method includes initiating configuration of resources in the first cohesive cluster and the second cohesive cluster to support the storage service.
