A system and method for distributed caching, the system having at least one network-connected storage device, a content server, and a control server. The control server is configured to discover the at least one network-connected storage device, collect device information from the at least one network-connected storage device, where the device information comprises a device location, assign each of the at least one network-connected storage device to a device domain based on each device location, and provide the content server with the device information for the one or more network-connected storage.

System and method for distributed caching

A system and method for a network-attached storage system includes at least one network-attached storage device, an application server, and a control server. In various embodiments, the control server is configured to discover the at least one network-attached storage device and configure a storage volume and a storage pool having the at least one network-attached storage device. The control server may claim each of the at least one network-attached storage device by sending each network-attached storage device a device whitelist. The control server is also configured to map the application server to the storage volume and provide the application server with an application server whitelist.

System and method for network-attached storage devices

Embodiments include a storage device, comprising: a communication interface; data storage media; key storage media; and control logic configured to: receive a first key associated with a second key through the communication interface; store the first key in the key storage media; and restrict access through the communication interface to data stored in the data storage media using at least one of the first key and the second key.
