Abstract: An example method for monitoring different data storage devices across a network includes receiving data storage access requests made to different data storage devices across a network. A subset of the access requests to a taxon of a taxonomy of access request characteristics. For the taxon, a taxon threshold is determined for a parameter based upon the subset of access requests. The parameter of a sample of observed access requests, made to a data storage device and belonging to the taxon, is compared to the taxon threshold. A notification regarding the data storage device is made based upon the comparison.

Abstract: In an example method, write commands for a solid-state storage medium having storage region are received. Selected write commands are filtered out according to criteria. The selected write commands are cached. Writing pursuant to the selected write commands is aggregated to within boundaries of one of the storage regions of the storage medium.

Abstract: In some examples, a computing device can include a processing resource, and a memory resource storing machine-readable instructions to cause the processing resource to monitor a characteristic of a user device. The characteristic can include the location of the user device, and communicate with a central resource to disintermediate cloud service offerings based on the characteristic of the user device.

Abstract: In one example, a method for enforcing, using a web browser of a client, a predefined management policy for an HTTP-based application executed on a server. The method includes initializing the browser with the policy, the policy including at least one operation and an element, associated with that operation, of a document object model (DOM) for a web page presented to the client by the application. The method also includes detecting with the browser a document change event for an element of the DOM. The method further includes performing the operation if the document change event is for an element in the policy.
