Computer-based system, has storage server with scheduler that executes access requests contained in queue in determined order and determines order as function of rules forming performance criteria and based on state parameters of queue

摘要

The system has application nodes including an application environment with a representation of files that are accessible in the form of addresses of blocks designating a physical address on a storage area (38). A storage client (44) interacts with a storage server (46), based on an access request designating a block address. A storage server (46) has a scheduler executing the access requests contained in its queue in a determined order. The scheduler determines the order as a function of rules forming performance criteria, and based on state parameters of the queue and/or a storing node. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for managing data in a network (2) a computer device forming storage node for implementing a method for managing data in the network (3) a computer program product comprising a code unit for implementing a method for managing data in the network.
