A method of managing Input Output per Second (IOPS) in Fiber Channel network topology is disclosed. The method includes initializing a plurality of network parameters into dependent variables and independent variables. The method includes performing multilinear regression analysis on at least one of the dependent variables and the independent variables to predict a value of at least one dependent variable. The method includes clustering each of a plurality of switches into a plurality of categories based on the predicted value. The method includes determining a plurality of routes between source and destination switches associated with an IOPS request. The method includes establishing a connection between the source and destination switches through a shortest route including a subset of switches. The method includes modulating, for each switch in the subset, a bandwidth according to an IOPS associated with the IOPS request and a category associated with each switch in the subset.
