Abstract
A data-storage-destination environment-determination module set determines any of a plurality of storage environments as a storage destination environment for storing data, based on a used-data table set about the characteristics of data and the storage environments. The data migration module transmits the data to the storage destination environment.
Claims8
An information processor coupled to a plurality of storage environments capable of storing data, the information processor comprising:
- a processor configured to determine any of the plurality of storage environments as a storage destination environment for storing the data, based on management information on characteristics of i) the data and ii) each of the plurality of storage environments, the processor determines conformity, i) with respect to each of the plurality of storage environments serving as storage destinations of the data and ii) with respect to a plurality of viewpoints, based on the management information, and determines the storage destination environment based on the conformity;
- the processor configured to transmit the data to the storage destination environment;
- and
- the processor configured to perform data processing on the data in accordance with the plurality of viewpoints for which the conformity, of one of the plurality of storage environments, does not satisfy predetermined conditions in the storage destination environment,
- wherein the processor transmits the data that has been subjected to the data processing.
A data control method executed by an information processor coupled to a plurality of storage environments capable of storing data, the method comprising:
- determining any of the plurality of storage environments as a storage destination environment for storing the data, based on management information on characteristics of i) the data and ii) each of the plurality of storage environments;
- determining conformity, i) with respect to each of the plurality of storage environments serving as storage destinations of the data and ii) with respect to a plurality of viewpoints, based on the management information, and determining the storage destination environment based on the conformity;
- transmitting the data to the storage destination environment;
- and
- performing data processing on the data in accordance with the plurality of viewpoints for which the conformity, of one of the plurality of storage environments, does not satisfy predetermined conditions in the storage destination environment,
- transmitting the data that has been subjected to the data processing.
A non-transitory and tangible computer-readable recording medium in which a program to be executed by a computer coupled to a plurality of storage environments is recorded, the program causing the computer to perform procedures of:
- determining any of the plurality of storage environments as a storage destination environment for storing the data, based on management information on characteristics of i) the data and ii) each of the plurality of storage environments;
- determining conformity, i) with respect to each of the plurality of storage environments serving as storage destinations of the data and ii) with respect to a plurality of viewpoints, based on the management information, and determining the storage destination environment based on the conformity;
- transmitting the data to the storage destination environment;
- and
- performing data processing on the data in accordance with the plurality of viewpoints for which the conformity, of one of the plurality of storage environments, does not satisfy predetermined conditions in the storage destination environment,
- transmitting the data that has been subjected to the data processing.
