A system and method include migrating, by a migration controller, a first entity of a first subset of entities from a source site to a target site in a virtual computing system based on an asynchronous mode of replication. The system and method also include replicating, by the migration controller, data of a second entity of a second subset of entities from the source site to the target site based on a synchronous mode of replication in parallel with the migration of the first entity for dynamically adjusting a recovery time objective parameter.

System and method for dynamically adjusting recovery time objective in a virtual computing system

A data storage site receives data from different data producer sites. Each of the data producer sites has a particular relationship to the data storage site, and each particular relationship carries corresponding data storage policies, constraints and commitments. When a data storage site receives a data storage request from a data producer, and that particular data is already present from a prior storage operation at the data storage site, the characteristics of the policies, constraints and commitments that were applied when that data was saved by the prior storage operation are reconciled with the policies, constraints and commitments of the requesting data producer. Deduplication logic reconciles different sets of policies, constraints and commitments such that the data can be effectively deduplicated by saving data-producer-specific metadata. Alternatively, the data can be effectively deduplicated by promoting the storage of the data so it covers a broader set of policies, constraints and commitments.

Policy-based data deduplication

Disclosed is an improved approach to implement testing for distributed computing systems. A switchboard framework is provided that allows tests to be dynamically generated and executed against a system under test.
