Mapping data sources to storage devices based on fuzzy logic-based classifications

摘要

A technique includes, for each storage device of a plurality of storage devices, applying, by a processor, fuzzy logic to assign the plurality of storage devices to respective storage classes based on the weights that are assigned to the plurality of storage devices. The technique includes assigning, by the processor, weights to attributes of a data source. In response to an operation to backup data of the data source, mapping, by the processor, the data source to a given storage device based on the weights that are assigned to the attributes of the data source and the storage class that is associated with the given storage device.
