DISTRIBUTED APPLICATION FRAMEWORK THAT USES NETWORK AND APPLICATION AWARENESS FOR PLACING DATA

摘要

A distributed application framework, along with related systems and/or methods described herein, can intelligently place data using network knowledge. An exemplary method can include receiving data placement information from a distributed application that identifies a source node of data in a network and a list of potential destination nodes in the network for the distributed application to place the data; for each potential destination node, determining a network latency associated with transferring the data from the source node to the potential destination node using network metrics associated with the network; and sending the determined network latencies to the distributed application, such that the distributed application can assign the data to one of the potential destination nodes based on the determined network latencies.
