Abstract: Example embodiments relate to protocol agnostic storage access with a software defined network (SDN). A method may include receiving, at a SDN enabled switch, an initialization packet to access a storage volume. The method may include determining, at the SDN enabled switch, a storage protocol used by the initialization packet, adding a protocol tag indicative of the storage protocol to the initialization packet, and sending the initialization packet to a SDN controller. The method may include identifying, at the SDN controller, a storage application based on the protocol tag and sending the initialization packet to the storage application. The storage application may be one of a plurality of storage applications, each associated with a different storage protocol. The method may include performing, by the storage application, protocol-specific tasks.

Abstract: The present subject matter relates to perform proactive monitoring and diagnostics in storage area networks (SANs). In one implementation, the method comprises depicting topology of the SAN in a graph, wherein the graph designates the devices as nodes, the connecting elements as edges, and depicts operations associated with at least one component of the nodes and edges. The method further comprises monitoring at least one parameter indicative of performance of the component to ascertain degradation of the at least one component and identifying, a hinge in the data associated with the monitoring, wherein the hinge is indicative of an initiation in degradation of the component. Based on the hinge, proactive diagnostics is preformed to compute a remaining lifetime of the at least one component. Thereafter, a notification is generated for an administrator of the SAN based on the remaining lifetime.
