Systems and methods are provided for storage platform-independent storage provisioning. The systems and methods may include receiving a storage provisioning request from a user interface, processing the storage provisioning request to determine one or more of a plurality of storage resources utilized to complete the storage provisioning request, generating an instruction to provision a data storage space among the one or more of the plurality of storage resources, and provisioning the data storage space based on the instruction. Each of the plurality of storage resources may include an interface configuration, and at least two interface configurations are different from one another. Each of the plurality of storage resources may be accessible and operational in accordance with the interface configuration thereof. The processing of a storage provisioning request may include determining at least one of a nature of the storage provisioning request, or an application associated with the storage provisioning request.

Unified-interface for storage provisioning

A job scheduling device providing a consistent set of application programming interfaces (APIs) compiled and linked into an individual or suite of programs to provide scheduling services on a single computer or across multiple computing platforms, includes a GUI API for retrieving and validated job parameters, a job scheduling API for allocating jobs based on the job parameters, and an enterprise scheduling agent hosted on one or more nodes of the computer platforms. An enterprise communication agent sends messages containing jobs from a computer executing a program utilizing the job scheduling device to the enterprise scheduling agent on a selected node where the job is to execute. Then, the enterprise scheduling agent retrieves job parameters and launches the job on the selected node. The enterprise scheduling agent maintains a local job repository containing job information for each job run on its corresponding node and sends messages to a job data management API to maintain a central job repository containing information on jobs executed on all nodes.
