Scoring data flow characteristics to assign data flows to storage systems in a data storage infrastructure for a communication network

摘要

A data storage infrastructure is disclosed for a communication network that produces a plurality of data flows of network data. The data storage infrastructure comprises a plurality of data storage systems and a storage management system. The data storage systems are configured to store the network data. The storage management system is configured to identify characteristics for the data flows, score the characteristics for the data flows, and process the scores to assign individual ones of the data flows to individual ones of the data storage systems.
