Abstract
Methods, non-transitory machine readable media, and computing devices that facilitate more efficient file system directory analytics are disclosed. With this technology, a bucket value is increased for one of a plurality of buckets in each of a plurality of histograms associated with a file system directory in a hierarchical directory tree after a storage operation creating a file in the file system directory. A time value is set for the file based on a time of the storage operation. The bucket value is adjusted responsive to subsequent storage operation(s) (e.g., read, write, or delete) associated with the file. The one of the buckets is identified after the subsequent storage operation(s) based on the time value. An interactive analytics interface is output that is configured to generate, using one or more of the histograms, historical activity associated with the file system directory responsive to a selection of the file system directory.
