Abstract
SummaryWith the increasing cloud‐trend of high‐performance computing (HPC), more users submit their applications simultaneously to the platform and wish they could finish before the deadline. Moreover, due to the severe holistic performance degradation caused by I/O contention, a deadline‐sensitive I/O scheduler is needed to allocate storage resources according to the requirements of applications and resultantly guarantee the quality of service (QoS) of concurrently running applications. In this paper, we first explore the bandwidth allocation phenomenon caused by interference in applications through the modeling of historical data, and then we quote a metric called random percentage that can represent the random degree of the applications and be used to guide I/O scheduling in the later stage. We design a dynamic I/O scheduler named DDL‐QoS that uses solid state drives(SSDs) as QoS guarantee to minimize interference and ensure applications meet their deadline. The potential of our design is that the greater the I/O interference, the greater the performance improvement, but this performance improvement will be limited by the physical properties of the storage hardware.
