Abstract

The embodiments described herein relate to dynamically managing metric data of a network environment with respect to a data storage system. A data retention policy is analyzed, which includes extracting one or more metric definitions from the retention policy. A relevance of a set of metric data is identified based on the analysis. The set of metric data includes an aggregation of one or more metric observations. A storage location in a data storage system for the set of metric values is selected based on the identified relevance. The data storage system includes a cache storage location and a persistent storage location. The set of metric data is retained in the selected storage location. As the retention policy is modified, select data may be re-classified and moved within the storage system based on the re-classification.
