Abstract: Techniques of the present disclosure automatically generate middleware code to structure representations of raw output from a storage platform and make suitable the output for consumption by a client application. In one embodiment, a method receives a storage platform description expressed at least in part in a domain specific language, wherein the storage platform description describes a storage platform and programmatically generates, based at least in part on the storage platform description, middleware code configured to transform response data received from the storage platform to conform to a target third party data structure of a third party application with which the response data is associated. The storage platform description can include characteristics of the storage platform such as topology, attributes, alerts, metrics, and the like. Suitable code can be reused or repurposed to reduce the amount of code handwritten by a developer.

Abstract: A schema-less system output object parser and code generation process analyzes an instance of a response object from a system, such as a storage array, having components of multiple different types, formats and communications protocols, and automatically generates middleware Java source code to translate and communicate requests and responses between the different components and client applications. Output response objects responding to application requests are annotated and parsed, and data structures are created and initialized with keys and key value variables to generate source code to handle live data.
