Abstract
User information describing a group of users of a distributed computer system configured to store and retrieve individualized user data associated with individual ones of the group of users, and system resource information associated with the distributed computer system, may be obtained. A global distribution plan describing a distribution of at least a portion of the individualized user data associated with the group may be determined based on a global optimization function of the obtained user information and system resource information associated with the distributed computer system, wherein the global optimization function is based on optimizing a global distribution of the portion of the individualized user data based on a determination of a measure of performance and fault tolerance associated with a model of the distributed computer system configured in accordance with the global distribution plan. The determined global distribution plan may be provided to a device for processing.
