Storage device performance prediction is a key element
of self-managed storage systems. This work explores the application
of a machine learning tool, CART models, to storage
device modeling. Our approach predicts a devices performance
as a function of input workloads, requiring no
knowledge of the device internals. We propose two uses of
CART models: one that predicts per-request response times
(and then derives aggregate values) and one that predicts
aggregate values directly from workload characteristics. After
being trained on the device in question, both provide accurate
black-box models across a range of test traces from
real environments. Experiments show that these models predict
the average and 90th percentile response time with a
relative error as low as 19%, when the training workloads
are similar to the testing workloads, and interpolate well
across different workloads.
