Abstract
Embodiments for improving Input/Output (I/O) performance through bi-directional bandwidth feedback optimization in a distributed computing environment. Resource allocation information from a host is retrieved by an application plugin. Bandwidth allocation information is retrieved from a network switch using Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) by the application plugin. A bandwidth optimization operation is performed on the host and/or on the network switch according to the resource allocation information received from the host and the bandwidth allocation information received from the network switch by the application plugin.
