The intensity feature of the application is another example. Data intensive
applications require a large storage pool to manage and process Big Data.
Data volume, I/O performance, data indexing, data backup, security,
and reliability are critical capabilities. Computing intensive applications
require powerful computing capacities (e.g., high CPU speed, more CPU
cores, and large memory size) to execute large-scale computing. The appli-
cation may utilize the computing power of multiple machines to improve
the performance; therefore, the network congurations and communication
optimiz ...
