Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods are disclosed for a system for managing data in accordance with service level agreements (SLAs) that specify schedules on a calendar basis for performing prescribed data management functions and for reducing inter-function redundancy. This system may include a data management engine for performing data management functions, including at least a snapshot function, and at least one back-up function. The data management engine may include a service level policy engine that receives SLAs in electronic form and which controls the scheduling of the data management functions. Each electronic SLA may be associated with a corresponding application and may specify at least one service level policy, each policy specifying a source pool, a destination pool, a copy frequency, a retention period and schedule information. A collection of policies is capable of expressing a non-uniform schedule for when a given function should be performed.
