Abstract: Methods and systems for a networked storage system are provided. One method includes registering a resource model by a processor having a plurality of objects, each object representing a plurality of resources of a networked storage system in a same format for storing attributes of any resource type. The resource model includes a plurality of relationship objects identifying relationship types for related resources of the plurality of resources. The method includes using the resource model by the processor, to generate an empty output array for the plurality of resources by iteratively processing the relationship objects of the resource model; and dynamically populating the empty output array by the processor, in response to an application programming interface (API) request for information regarding a resource, by updating the placeholder link providing a link to the resource identified by the request.

Abstract: Methods and systems for a networked storage environment are provided. One method includes generating a resource model by a processor for storing attributes of a plurality of resources used for storing data in the networked storage system having a plurality of storage devices; identifying a relationship type by the processor between related resources of the plurality of resources; storing by the processor, relationship information as an attribute of the related resources in a shell structure that includes a link for accessing information regarding each related resource and is searchable by a unique resource identifier identifying each related resource; and populating the shell structure by the processor in response to a request for resource information for a related resource by updating the link with a relationship attribute that provides information regarding a relationship that the related resource has with another resource using the updated link from the shell structure.
