Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for defining one or more computing system requirements for desired data storage array. One or more design criteria is defined for the desired data storage array. At least one recommended data storage array is identified for the desired data storage array based, at least in part, upon the one or more computing system requirements and the one or more design criteria.

Abstract: Described are techniques for determining data storage system configurations. Inputs are provided to a data storage system configuration generator. The inputs include first inputs and second inputs. The first inputs include a performance objective, a storage capacity, and input(s) characterizing an I/O workload. The second inputs characterize performance of data storage system components and costs of the data storage system components. First processing is performed by the data storage system configuration generator in accordance with the inputs to determine a set of one or more candidate data storage system configurations. The data storage system configuration selects, in accordance with one or more criteria, a first candidate data storage system configuration from the set.
