Performance modeling of resilient information system for remote data storage

Abstract

In this work the authors used the OPNET software simulation tool to simulate different possible cases of the resilient information systems and its performance. To demonstrate the performance variation different performance metrics at multiple layer of the compunctions protocol have been collect. The model was configured to use real life traffic traces and generated traffic to reflect activities of remote data storage sites over long distance. Preliminary results demonstrate the feasibility of this approach. Further model refinements and alternative scenarios are under consideration.
