A method for managing a data replication operation includes: obtaining, by a first security module (FSM), UTC-based system time of a first storage area network (SAN) infrastructure; generating, by the FSM, a secure string based on the UTC-based system time and a configuration parameter set by a user of the first SAN infrastructure; encrypting, by the FSM, the secure string to generate an encrypted secure string; appending, by the FSM, the encrypted secure string to a data replication request to generate an encrypted secure string-appended request, sending, by the FSM, the encrypted secure string-appended request to a second SAN infrastructure; making, after intercepting the encrypted secure string-appended request and by a second security module (SSM), a determination that the encrypted secure string-appended request is valid; and initiating, by the SSM, the operation from the first SAN infrastructure to the second SAN infrastructure by sending a notification to the FSM.

Method and system for secure and synchronous storage area network (SAN) infrastructure to SAN infrastructure data replication

A method for managing a data center includes: receiving metadata associated with a data center component (DCC); making a first determination that the DCC is valid; analyzing, based on the first determination, the metadata to extract relevant data; obtaining a current state of the DCC based on the relevant data; inferring a future state of the DCC based on the current state of the DCC; obtaining a confidence score of the future state of the DCC based on the relevant data; making a second determination that the confidence score exceeds a predetermined maximum confidence score; generating, based on the second determination, a failure report associated with the DCC, wherein the report comprises at least the current state of the DCC and future state of the DCC; and providing the failure report to a vendor of the DCC to notify an administrator of the vendor.

Method and system for monitoring health and security of data center components via bi-directional proxy

A method for recovering a data center, includes making a determination, by a cloud module, that the data center has experienced a failure; sending, by the cloud module and in response to the determination, an infrastructure file including data center infrastructure information to a client device; receiving, after sending the infrastructure file, a confirmation from the client device that at least a portion of the data center infrastructure is installed; sending, from the cloud module to the data center module, a snapshot in response to the confirmation; deploying, by the data center module, the snapshot at the data center; validating, by the data center module, complete connectivity of data center; sending, by the data center module, a heartbeat signal to the cloud module in response to the validating; and sending, by the cloud module, a standby signal to disaster recovery resources in response to receiving the heartbeat signal.

Method and system for data center disaster recovery

A method for managing a data center includes: intercepting a data transfer request; making a determination that the request is valid; initiating, based on the determination, a data transfer operation by sending a notification to a client; analyzing a data package to infer components of the package, in which the package comprises data chunks and client-based hash values (CBHVs) associated with the data chunks; generating, based on the analysis, data center-based hash values (DCHVs) corresponding to the data chunks; populating a hash mapping lookup table to store the CBHVs and DCHVs; obtaining storage location information of the data chunks from storage; updating, based on the information, a storage location map; and initiating notification of a user of the client about completion of the operation.
