Abstract
Apparatuses, systems, methods, and program products are disclosed for improved storage performance based on data placement. An identifier module generates a plurality of unique identifiers. Each of the unique identifiers is associated with a storage node of a storage cluster. A rank module ranks each of the plurality of unique identifiers in response to a received data item. The ranking of a unique identifier is based on one or more characteristics associated with the received data item. A storage module selects a unique identifier of the plurality of unique identifiers with a best ranking and stores the data item on a storage node associated with the selected unique identifier.
