A method is used in determining suitability of storage. Storage data of a data storage system is analyzed. The storage data includes information associated with use of a storage object of the data storage system by an application of the data storage system. A storage suitability characteristic for the storage object is determined. The storage suitability characteristic for the storage object is provided to a user for provisioning storage for the application in the data storage system.

Determining suitability of storage

Techniques for presenting a dynamic graphical user interface (GUI) for selecting multiple non-conflicting filters to be used to filter performance data for display in a visualization are provided.

Dynamically building a visualization filter

A method is used in facilitating valid data entry. Data is received from a single data entry field. Based on a data entry event, the data is checked for validity against multiple permissible data formats. Based on the checking, validity checking results are generated.

Facilitating valid data entry

Described are techniques for determining storage requirements for data protection. An initial size of a data protection area is determined. The data protection area provides storage for data obtained as a result of performing a data protection process for a first data area. The initial size is determined as a mathematical product of a first size of the first data area for which data protection is performed, a retention time, and a rate of change. Monitoring for an occurrence of one of a plurality of trigger events is performed. In response to an occurrence of one of the plurality of trigger events, it is determined whether an adjustment to a current size of the data protection area is needed.
