Abstract: Designing a storage area network (SAN) fabric requires devising a set of hubs, switches and links to connect hosts to their storage devices. The network must be capable of simultaneously meeting specified data flow requirements between multiple host-device pairs, and it must do so cost-effectively, since large-scale SAN fabrics can cost millions of dollars. Given that the number of data flows can easily number in the hundreds, simple overprovisioned manual designs are often not attractive: ... (Update)

...allocation framework is based on an economic model that factors in the trade offs between the service quality and the cost. The Appia [32] system automatically generates network fabric designs. It uses significantly simpler performance models, and substantially different...
