Abstract
Assessing protection for storage resources, including: identifying a set of active data protection features for one or more storage resources; generating a data protection assessment based on the set of active data protection features; and reporting the data protection assessment.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- classifying, by a storage system, storage resources of the storage system based on a set of third-party active data protection features of a third-party provider that is remote from the storage system that are identified as being applied to the storage resources, wherein the storage system accesses the third-party provider via a plug-in;
- and
- transmitting, by the storage system, to a graphical user interface (GUI), information for presenting a data protection assessment for the storage system that indicates the set of third-party active data protection features of the third-party provider that are applied to the storage resources and a classification for the storage resources, wherein the set of active data protection features comprises a snapshot policy comprising a frequency at which snapshots are created, one or more triggering events for generating a snapshot, and a duration of time for retaining snapshots.
An apparatus comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processing device, operatively coupled to the memory, configured to:
- classify, by a storage system, storage resources of the storage system based on a set of third-party active data protection features of a third-party provider that is remote from the storage system that are identified as being applied to the storage resources, wherein the storage system accesses the third-party provider via a plug-in;
- and
- transmit, to a graphical user interface (GUI), information to present a data protection assessment for the storage system that indicates the set of third-party active data protection features applied to the storage resources and a classification for the storage resources, wherein the set of active data protection features comprises a replication policy for data that is unable to be captured by a snapshot, the replication policy comprising a frequency at which the data is replicated and a target storage location for the replicated data.
3 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause a processing device to:
- classify, by a storage system, storage resources of the storage system based on a set of third-party active data protection features of a third-party provider that is remote from the storage system that are identified as being applied to the storage resources, wherein the storage system access the third-party provider via a plug-in;
- and
- transmit, to a graphical user interface (GUI), information to present a data protection assessment for the storage system that indicates the set of third-party active data protection features applied to the storage resources and a classification for the storage resources, wherein the set of active data protection features comprises a replication policy for data that is unable to be captured by a snapshot, the replication policy comprising a frequency at which the data is replicated and a target storage location for the replicated data.
