摘要: 负载平衡是提高大规模存储系统资源和能源使用效率,进而降低系统建设成本和运行成本的重要手段。然而,该领域相关工作多侧重于具体技术方法的研制和改进,缺乏不同方法间的比较和评价。通过对存储系统负载平衡方法的仿真与分析,揭示了现有负载平衡方法所面临的主要挑战,也为工程上各方法的选择提供了参考依据。

Abstract: For a large-scale storage system,load balancing is an important way to improve the utilization ratio of system resources and the energy efficiency.It could greatly reduce the provisioning and operational cost.However,most exis-ting studies are focused on the design or improvement of a specific method while mading no evaluation or comparison among different methods.In this paper,extensive simulations were conducted to evaluate the existing load balancing methods.The results reveal the main challenge and unsettled problem in the area.Besides,theoretical basis was founded for selecting the appropriate load balancing method in practice.
