Abstract:
1. A computer program product for replicating read/write performance in data replication environments, the computer program product comprising a computer-usable medium having computer-usable program code embodied therein, the computer-usable program code comprising: computer-usable program code to monitor reads and writes to a primary storage device over a period of time, wherein writes to the primary storage device are replicated to a secondary storage device to provide data redundancy; computer-usable program code to generate first learning data at the primary storage device describing the reads and writes to the primary storage device; computer-usable program code to replicate the first learning data from the primary storage device to the secondary storage device; and computer-usable program code to use the first learning data to optimize the secondary storage device to handle the reads and writes in the event the reads and writes are redirected from the primary storage device to the secondary storage device.
