14. One or more computer-readable media storing instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, instruct the at least one processor to perform operations comprising: accessing dataset association metadata describing associations among datasets to be stored on at least one of a plurality of data storage systems; determining a graph that describes the associations among the datasets; traversing the graph to determine a set of vertices that are in at least one associative tree, the set of vertices corresponding to a set of datasets; determining utilization metrics for individual ones of the set of datasets, wherein a utilization metric indicates an effect of storing a dataset on the at least one of the plurality of data storage systems; determining a data storage system for storing the set of datasets, the data storage system characterized by one or more of a storage capacity or a processing capacity that is sufficient to accommodate the utilization metrics of the set of datasets, the data storage system included in the plurality of data storage systems; and generating configuration information designating the set of datasets to be stored on the data storage system.
