Abstract: In some examples, a scheduler of a control plane schedules control plane entities in a cluster of computing nodes, where placements of the control plane entities in respective computing nodes reflect where respective data path service partitions are to be placed. A first control plane entity in a first computing node activates a first data path service partition in the first computing node. The first data path service partition is used to access data of a first data shard in a data store, where data of the data store is partitioned across a plurality of data shards associated with the respective data path service partitions. Based on a condition of the cluster of computing nodes, a placement of a second control plane entity is modified to change a placement in the cluster of computing nodes of a second data path service partition associated with the second control plane entity.

Abstract: Recovery support techniques for storage virtualization environments are described. In one embodiment, for example, a method may be performed that comprises defining, by processing circuitry, a storage container comprising one or more logical storage volumes of a logical storage array of a storage system, associating the storage container with a virtual volume (vvol) datastore, identifying metadata for a vvol of the vvol datastore, and writing the metadata for the vvol to the storage system. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In some examples, a first storage system receives a transfer of a synchronous replication role and an asynchronous replication role of a second storage system to the first storage system, where in the synchronous replication role the second storage system is to synchronously replicate data to the first storage system, and in the asynchronous replication role the second storage system is to asynchronously replicate a first data storage object to a third storage system. The first storage system uses, at the first storage system, translation information to identify a second data storage object that the second storage system is to asynchronously replicate to the third storage system following the transfer.

Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed an apparatus and method for determining a profile for an application, the profile to specify a setting for one or more storage services provided by a storage system, determining whether settings for provided storage services for the application conform to the profile. Further and in response to determining one or more of the provided storage services is non-conforming, performing a remediation operation to correct non-conforming storage services, and in response to determining the provided storage services are conforming storage services, providing an indication indicating the provided storage services are conforming to the profile.
