Abstract

One or more aspects of the present disclosure relate to dynamic performance optimization in storage arrays using tracelet matrices. In embodiments, one or more input/output (IO) operations are received by a storage array. Code path branches taken by each IO operation across storage array components are recorded in a bitmap matrix. Additionally, the likelihood of different code path branches being taken by each IO operation at a storage device or storage group level is forecasted using each IO operation's corresponding bitmap matrix. Performance bottlenecks corresponding to the one or more IO operations are also identified based on a comparison of each IO operation's bitmap matrix and a forecast of the likelihood of the different code path branches being taken by each IO operation targeting a subject storage device or storage group. Further, storage array resources and configurations are dynamically adjusted to resolve the identified performance bottlenecks.
