ABSTRACT:
A method for communicating information from a first computing node to at least one of the following: a storage device and a second computing node. The first computing node is monitored to collect at least one estimate of available resources, and based on this estimate, an amount of data collected is modified. Then, the collected data is sent to at least one of the following: the storage device and the second computing node. This invention also provides for the determination of an optimum batch size for aggregating data wherein, for a number of batch sizes, costs are estimated for sending batched information to persistent storage and for losing batched data. Then, the optimum batch size is selected from the number of different batch sizes based on sums of these costs. This invention also provides for selective compression of data, wherein it is determined which of a number of compression algorithms do not incur an overhead that exceeds available resources. Then, one of the determined algorithms is selected to maximize compression.
