Abstract

An apparatus comprises at least one processing device that is configured to send write requests to a first storage system. The first storage system is configured to participate in a replication process in which data associated with the write requests is replicated from the first storage system to a second storage system that is separate from the first storage system. The at least one processing device is further configured to receive from the first storage system an indication of a write pressure condition arising in the second storage system and relating to replication of the data associated with the write requests from the first storage system to the second storage system, and to at least temporarily limit a manner in which additional write requests are sent to the first storage system responsive to the received indication of the write pressure condition arising in the second storage system.
