Methods and systems for a networked storage environment are provided. One method includes using a storage service level (SSL) object and a protection service level (PSL) object for storing a plurality of configurable attributes by a processor. A combination of the configurable attributes define service level classes (SLCs) in a networked storage system using a plurality of resources. The SSL object and the PSL object use a same schema and naming convention for defining the plurality of configurable attributes regardless of configuration attribute type and resource type. The method also includes obtaining by the processor, attributes defining a second SLC for a storage volume assigned to a first SLC; and updating by the processor, a quality of service (QOS) policy for the storage volume for using a resource that meets attributes of the second SLC. The storage volume is assigned the resource to process requests for data.

Methods and systems for using service level objectives in a networked storage environment

Methods and systems for a networked storage environment are provided. One method includes storing a plurality of configurable attributes at a data structure by a processor, where a combination of the configurable attributes is used to define a custom service level class (SLC) in a networked storage environments using a plurality of resources for storing data; receiving a request by the processor to create the custom SLC based of a set of configurable attributes; identifying a resource of the networked storage environment that meets the requirements defined by the attributes of the custom SLC; and configuring the resource for meeting the requirements of the custom SLC.

A method of refreshing a materialized view includes creating a materialized view based on a first result of a database query executed against a set of tables stored in a database and discovering a set of child storage objects associated with a parent storage object. The method also includes inserting, based on discovering the set of child storage objects, an entry into one or more tables of the set of tables, the entry including a child storage object of the set of child storage objects. The method further includes delaying a refresh of the materialized view until after the entry is inserted into the set of tables and then refreshing the materialized view, which is based on a second result of the database query executed against the set of tables.
