Abstract
Embodiments for network management in a Software-defined Storage (SDS) environment. Remote mirroring connectivity and data transfer is optimized in the SDS environment by establishing each of a plurality of nodes in a local storage array and a remote storage array as a gateway node. Data residing on a local gateway node is transferred directly to a remote gateway node owning the data, thereby avoiding interconnect data hops and improving datacenter network utilization.
