Abstract

A method for optimizing storage configuration for future demand and a system applying the method are disclosed. The system includes a monitoring module, a storage recording module, a traffic modeling module, a rule-based decision module, and a storage management module. With performance values and utilization values provided from the monitoring module, a traffic status of data access in a particular time in the future can be generated. Then, a storage configuration with the workload requirement according to some rules can be available. The storage configuration is implemented to fulfill the requirement of the traffic status of data access.
