Abstract: A non-transitory machine readable medium having stored thereon instructions for performing a method comprising machine executable code which when executed by at least one machine, causes the machine to: receive a schema with a tag and a parameter, the schema representing a change to be made to a converged infrastructure environment, wherein the schema is received from a cloud-based service to the on-site converged infrastructure environment; select an executable script template from a store of executable script templates using the tag; generate an executable script from the executable script template, including populating the executable script template with the parameter; and run the executable script against a component of the converged infrastructure environment.

Abstract: Systems and methods that enable the optimal creation of a storage object within a virtual storage system are disclosed. In accordance with embodiments, an optimal location with the storage system is determined in response to receiving an indication that a storage object is to be created within the storage system. The system and method prioritize physical storage resources in which to create the storage object, prioritize components to be provided access to the created storage object, and prioritize the interface between the physical storage resources and the accessing component. The storage object is optimally created within the storage system based on the priorities and based, at least in part, on other created storage objects.
