Abstract:
In a computer-implemented method for configuring flash cache for input/output operations to a storage device by a plurality of virtual machines an input/output trace log for each of a plurality of virtual machines is accessed. Performance of each of the plurality of virtual machines based on a plurality of configurations of the flash cache is simulated in real-time. A recommendation of the plurality of configurations of the flash cache for the each of the plurality of virtual machines utilizing results from the simulation is generated.
