Abstract:
Technology is disclosed for managing network storage services by service level objectives (SLOs). The method receives multiple service level capability (SLC) templates; creates at least one storage service level (SSL) instance using at least one of the SLC templates; provisions a storage object located in a network storage infrastructure based on the SSL instance; and services storage requests using the storage object.
Abstract:
The techniques introduced here provide for efficient creation and management of secure storage and backup in a cloud storage network. The techniques include a system and method for provisioning storage for a user in a cloud storage network. Using the techniques introduced here, a management module, upon receiving a request from a user for storage in a cloud storage system, determines a primary storage system and a secondary storage system for primary storage and backup storage, respectively, that meets the requirements of a service level selected by the user. The management module then creates and configures a primary virtual server and a secondary virtual server, for the primary storage and the backup storage, respectively, and provisions storage for the user. The techniques also include non-disruptive migration of data between virtual servers in response to a service level change.
