Orchestrating indexing

In a computer system, a method for providing data indexing, the method comprising:

• classifying data objects into at least one category using at least a level of data indexing that is based on information collected from the data objects, wherein the information is used to determine the level of data indexing for each of the data objects, wherein the at least one category enables the data indexing to be customized for each data object;
• mapping each of the at least one category to a service level objective based on at least the level of data indexing determined for each of the data objects, wherein each service level objective defines the level of data indexing to be applied to the data objects in the service level objectives, wherein the service level objectives define whether all content, a portion of the content, or none of the content of each data object is indexed according to the level of data indexing;
• mapping the service level objectives to service packages available from one or more service providers;
• and
• orchestrating data indexing of the data objects according to the service level objective of each of the data objects to create at least one searchable index of at least some of the data objects in the computer system, wherein the data objects are indexed according to the corresponding service level objective in the at least one searchable index and wherein data indexing enables at least searching of content in the data objects using the at least one searchable index.
