Data Replication and the Storage Capacity of Data Grids

Storage is undoubtedly one of the main resources in data grids, and planning the capacity of storage nodes is an important step in any data-grid design. This paper focuses on storage-capacity planning for data grids. We have developed a tool to calculate, for a specific scenario, the minimum capacit...

Summary:Storage is undoubtedly one of the main resources in data grids, and planning the capacity of storage nodes is an important step in any data-grid design. This paper focuses on storage-capacity planning for data grids. We have developed a tool to calculate, for a specific scenario, the minimum capacity required for each storage node in a grid, and we have used this tool to show that different strategies used for data replication may lead to different storage requirements, affecting the storage-capacity planning.
