Abstract

A system includes a data collector, a plurality of data placement optimizers, a data placement arbitrator, and a data mover. The data collector is configured to collect system configuration data and system performance data. The plurality of data placement optimizers are each configured to analyze the system configuration data and the system performance data for developing a corresponding data movement plan. The data placement arbitrator is configured to arbitrate conflicts between at least two data movement plans of generated by the plurality of data placement optimizers to form an execution plan. The data mover is configured to perform the data movement plans according to the execution plan.
