Abstract
A technique for multi-layer quality of service (QoS) management in a distributed computing environment includes: receiving a workload to run in a distributed computing environment; identifying a workload quality of service (QoS) class for the workload; translating the workload QoS class to a storage level QoS class; scheduling the workload to run on a compute node of the environment; communicating the storage level QoS class to a workload execution manager of the compute node; communicating the storage level QoS class to one or more storage managers of the environment, the storage managers managing storage resources in the environment; and extending, by the storage managers, the storage level QoS class to the storage resources to support the workload QoS class.
