Abstract: Methods and systems for a computing cluster are provided. An application programming interface (API) at a manager application is exposed. The API specifies input identifying nodes and connections between the nodes to implement storage protection policies in the computing cluster. A user input that includes instructions to implement multiple destination nodes and respective connections between a source node and the destination nodes is received. A topology that includes the source node, the destination nodes, and the connections between the source node and the destination nodes is traversed. Based on traversing the topology, commands are sent to a storage system of the cluster to implement a destination volume corresponding to the destination node and multiple protection configurations. Each of the protection configurations corresponds to a respective one of the connections.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for providing data policy management over application objects in a storage system environment. An application object may comprise non-virtual or virtual objects (e.g., non-virtual-based applications, virtual-based applications, or virtual storage components). An application object manager may represent application objects by producing mapping graphs and/or application object data that represent application objects in a standardized manner. A mapping graph for an application object may describe a mapping between the application object and its underlying storage objects on a storage system. Application object data may describe a mapping graph in a standardized format. Application object data representing application objects may be received by an application policy manager that manages data policies on the application objects (including virtual applications and virtual storage components) based on the received application object data. Data policies may include policies for backup, service level objectives, recovery, monitoring and/or reporting.
