Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computing system for defining a storage pool for a storage system being designed that includes a plurality of storage tiers. Each storage tier has a different level of performance. A plurality of workloads are defined for the storage system, wherein each of the plurality of workloads includes: a target skew factor, a capacity requirement, and a IOPS requirement. A density function is generated for each of the plurality of workloads based, at least in part, upon the target skew factor for each of the plurality of workloads. A consolidated system loading report is generated based, at least in part, upon the target skew factor for each of the plurality of workloads.
