Abstract: Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for a topology aware load balancing engine. A processor that executes a load balancing engine can receive a request for a load balancing plan for an application. The processor can obtain network topology data that describes elements of a data center and links associated with the elements. The processor can obtain an application flow graph associated with the application and create a load balancing plan to use in balancing traffic associated with the application. The processor can create the load balancing plan to use in balancing traffic associated with the application and distribute commands to the data center to balance traffic over the links.

Abstract: There is provided an autonomous distributed type file system which is connected to a data reference device through a first network. The autonomous distributed type file system includes a plurality of storage device units which are mutually connected through a second network and are connected to the first network. Each of the storage device unit includes a local storage and a local controller. The local controller includes a storage directory and a duplicated data maintaining unit. The duplicated data maintaining unit refers to the storage directory, and continuously keeps same contents of duplicated data items in a range without running out of storage capacity of an own node. When there is no free space in the storage capacity, duplicate writing of the data with the same contents is prevented.

Abstract: A server computer, upon receiving a signal for a write request to a storage device from a management computer, performs a provisional write, which is a write related to the write request signal, to a first storage part in the server computer, and sends a first notification signal indicating that the provisional write has been completed to the management computer. The management computer, upon receiving the first notification signal, transmits a second notification signal indicating that the management computer has received the first notification signal to the server computer. The server computer, upon receiving the second notification signal, performs write processing to the storage device. Thereby, a failure caused by dual execution of write processing to the disk is prevented when transferring processing from a main server to an auxiliary server in a case where the main server fails with regard to processing accompanying writing to the disk.
