Patent attributes
Described are techniques that determine cumulative skew curves. A first model is determined that generates a predicted destination cumulative skew curve for a specified data set in a destination data storage system having a destination data movement granularity. The predicted destination cumulative skew curve is predicted by the first model in accordance with one or more inputs including a source cumulative skew curve for the specified data set in a source data storage system that uses a source data movement granularity. The source cumulative skew curve for the specified data set is determined based on observed data. First processing is performed using the first model. The first model generates as an output the predicted destination cumulative skew curve. The first processing includes providing the one or more inputs to the first model. Also described is how to generate the first model.
