Abstract:
A method and an apparatus to manage data in a networked storage server have been disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a single logical layer between a number of logical subsystems in a storage server and a number of data management agents in the storage server, wherein the data management agents are operable to service requests from a number of client machines following different data management protocols, and exporting a set of application programming interfaces (APIs) from the single logical layer to interface with the data management agents.
