Abstract

An apparatus in one embodiment comprises a host device comprising a processor coupled to memory. The host device is configured to communicate over a network with at least one storage system. The host device is further configured to retrieve data corresponding to a plurality of processes for submitting a plurality of input-output operations to the at least one storage system, to identify one or more constraints on the plurality of processes based at least in part on the data; and to control submissions of the plurality of input-output operations to the at least one storage system based at least in part on the one or more constraints. The retrieval of the data, the identification of the one or more constraints and the control of the submissions are performed in a user space of the host device.
