Technologies for performing partially synchronized writes

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media comprising a plurality of instructions that, when executed by a managed node, cause the managed node to:

• issue a write request to write a data block, on behalf of a workload, to multiple data storage devices connected to a network;
• pause execution of the workload;
• receive an initial acknowledgment associated with one of the multiple data storage devices, wherein the initial acknowledgement is indicative of successful storage of the data block;
• resume execution of the workload after receipt of the initial acknowledgement and before receipt of subsequent acknowledgements associated with any other data storage devices of the multiple data storage devices;
• receive a subsequent acknowledgement associated with one of the other data storage devices after the workload has been resumed;
• and
• determine an elapsed time period between the initial acknowledgement and the subsequent acknowledgement.

A method for managing partially synchronized writes, the method comprising:

• issuing, by a managed node, a write request to write a data block, on behalf of a workload, to multiple data storage devices connected to a network;
• pausing, by the managed node, execution of the workload;
• receiving, by the managed node, an initial acknowledgment associated with one of the multiple data storage devices, wherein the initial acknowledgement is indicative of successful storage of the data block;
• resuming, by the managed node, execution of the workload after receipt of the initial acknowledgement and before receipt of subsequent acknowledgements associated with any other data storage devices of the multiple data storage devices;
• receiving, by the managed node, a subsequent acknowledgement associated with one of the other data storage devices after the workload has been resumed;
• and
• determining, by the managed node, an elapsed time period between the initial acknowledgement and the subsequent acknowledgement.
