Abstract
Replication between virtual storage systems includes: constructing a virtual storage system in which the one or more virtual storage devices are coupled to each of one or more virtual storage controllers and replicating a dataset from the virtual storage system to another virtual storage system, where at least one of the virtual storage systems is an on-premises virtual storage system utilizing on-premises physical storage resources.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- instantiating one or more virtual storage controllers, wherein the one or more virtual storage controllers are coupled to different components in different virtual storage systems including on-premises virtual storage systems utilizing on-premises physical storage resources and cloud-based virtual storage systems that are created using services offered within a cloud platform environment;
- and
- constructing at least one storage system using the one or more virtual storage controllers.
An apparatus comprising:
- a memory;
- a processing device operably coupled to the memory, configured to:
- instantiate one or more virtual storage controllers, wherein the one or more virtual storage controllers are coupled to different components in different virtual storage systems including on-premises virtual storage systems utilizing on-premises physical storage resources and cloud-based virtual storage systems that are created using services offered within a cloud platform environment;
- and
- construct at least one storage system using the one or more virtual storage controllers.
2 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions that:
- instantiate one or more virtual storage controllers, wherein the one or more virtual storage controllers are coupled to different components in different virtual storage systems including on-premises virtual storage systems utilizing on-premises physical storage resources and cloud-based virtual storage systems that are created using services offered within a cloud platform environment;
- and
- construct at least one storage system using the one or more virtual storage controllers.
