Abstract

See full text

Storage operation requests from any device of a computing environment can be numerous and frequent. In particular, if there is a high frequency initiation of storage operation requests to store, retrieve, or modify data, then targeted storage systems have to easily and quickly decide in which order to satisfy the storage operation requests, such as when two requests occur to retrieve identical data. Storage operation requests can be prioritized at the end device instead of any intermediary device or enabling a complex ordering algorithm. Moreover, the storage on a cloud model consists of similar storage services which serve consumers of different needs. Some applications/users can afford longer service time than other applications/users. Differentiation in required service time allows price differentiation. The solution will serve premium customers faster than it serves customers who paid less.
