Here is the scenario, I currently have 2 applications and its individual data storages. I have 2 networking switch and 1 router.

Design A: Application A + 1 data storage is connected to 1 networking switch

Application B + 1 data storage is connected to 1 networking switch

Both Application A and Application B are connected through a 1 router.

Does this Design A have lower latency for users and higher throughput (in pages/second)?

Design B: Application A + Application B is connected to 1 networking switch

Application A data storage + Application B data storage is connected to 1 networking switch

Both Application A and Application B are connected through a 1 router.

Does this Design B have lower latency for users and higher throughput (in pages/second)?

How do you distinguish which design has better performance?
