System and method of cross-silo discovery and mapping of storage, hypervisors and other network objects

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• memory containing instructions configured to control the one or more processors to:
• receive from a plurality of probes:
• network traffic data from a network traffic monitoring platform, the network traffic monitoring platform being in communication with an enterprise network, the network traffic data identifying communication between entities of the enterprise network;
• and
• storage monitoring data from a server-based SAN monitoring platform, the server-based SAN monitoring platform being in communication with the enterprise network, the storage monitoring data identifying communication between a software-only server-based SAN and entities of the enterprise network;
• parse the received traffic data to identify at least one of a plurality of object data and/or at least one of a plurality of metric data;
• parse the received storage monitoring data to identify at least one of the plurality of object data and/or at least one of the plurality of metric data;
• create a metric table entry from the at least one identified metric data of the enterprise network, the metric data including properties of the enterprise network and a metric unique identifier;
• create an object table entry from the at least one identified object data of the enterprise network, the object data identifying an object of the enterprise network and an object unique identifier, and properties of the object of the enterprise network, the object of the enterprise network including an application of the enterprise network, a host of the enterprise network;
• link one of a plurality of metric table entries with at least one of a plurality of object table entries, the linking of the one of the plurality of metric table entries with the at least one of the plurality of object tables entries done by comparing the metric unique identifier to the object unique identifier;
• create a link table entry from the linking of one of the plurality of metric table entries with the at least one of the plurality of object table entries;
• for each of a plurality of link table entries:
• assign an object performance threshold to each of the plurality of metric table entries linked to that link table entry based the property of the enterprise network;
• compare the object performance threshold to each of the plurality of metric table entries to the assigned object performance threshold;
• and
• if an alarm trigger condition is satisfied based on the comparison, then trigger an alarm event;
• and
• output an alarm notification, the alarm notification based on the alarm event, the alarm notification identifying the object data of the enterprise network and the assigned object performance threshold.
