Next generation storage controller in hybrid environments

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• at least one computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
• identify a plurality of data block replicas distributed across sites, the plurality of data block replicas corresponding to respective blocks of data;
• monitor events associated with the plurality of data block replicas distributed across the sites;
• based on the events, generate respective status and access data for the plurality of data block replicas distributed across the networks;
• based on the respective status and access data, determine that one or more data block replicas associated with a block of data have reached at least one data access threshold;
• and
• in response to determining that the one or more data block replicas have reached at least one data access threshold, modify a replica distribution across the sites for the block of data.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• identify a plurality of data block replicas distributed across sites, the plurality of data block replicas corresponding to respective blocks of data;
• monitor events associated with the plurality of data block replicas distributed across the sites;
• based on the events, generate respective status and access data for the plurality of data block replicas distributed across the sites;
• based on the respective status and access data, determine that one or more data block replicas associated with a block of data have reached at least one data access threshold;
• and
• in response to determining that the one or more data block replicas have reached at least one data access threshold, modify a replica distribution across the sites for the block of data.
