Abstract:
Computer system and method for managing storage requests in a distributed storage system uses congestion data related to processing of storage requests for local storage to adaptively adjust a bandwidth limit for a first class of storage requests to be processed. The bandwidth limit is enforced on the storage requests belonging to the first class of storage requests without enforcing any bandwidth limit on the storage requests belonging to a second class of storage requests.
