Take me to your leader! Online Optimization of Distributed Storage Configurations
Summary: Workload-driven framework for online optimization of distributed storage configurations, dynamically tuning leader placement, replication roles, and replica locations across three optimization tiers. Applied to a Google-scale storage system, it yields up to 94% latency reduction for most client applications. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
