Abstract: A method for managing policies for a disaster recovery of a data center includes receiving, at a cloud module, a first set of data that includes data center infrastructure information associated with the data center, a first prediction of resources, a list of assigned disaster recovery resources, and a status report of an application using the assigned disaster recovery resources; generating, by the cloud module and using the first set of data as training data, a learning model; generating a second prediction of resources using the learning model; and assigning, using the cloud module, disaster recovery resources to obtain assigned disaster recovery resources based on the second prediction, and the cloud module activates the assigned disaster recovery resources in response to determining that the data center has experienced a failure.

Abstract: A method for managing a data replication operation includes: obtaining, by a first security module (FSM), UTC-based system time of a first storage area network (SAN) infrastructure; generating, by the FSM, a secure string based on the UTC-based system time and a configuration parameter set by a user of the first SAN infrastructure; encrypting, by the FSM, the secure string to generate an encrypted secure string; appending, by the FSM, the encrypted secure string to a data replication request to generate an encrypted secure string-appended request, sending, by the FSM, the encrypted secure string-appended request to a second SAN infrastructure; making, after intercepting the encrypted secure string-appended request and by a second security module (SSM), a determination that the encrypted secure string-appended request is valid; and initiating, by the SSM, the operation from the first SAN infrastructure to the second SAN infrastructure by sending a notification to the FSM.

Abstract: A method for managing a data center includes: receiving metadata associated with a data center component (DCC); making a first determination that the DCC is valid; analyzing, based on the first determination, the metadata to extract relevant data; obtaining a current state of the DCC based on the relevant data; inferring a future state of the DCC based on the current state of the DCC; obtaining a confidence score of the future state of the DCC based on the relevant data; making a second determination that the confidence score exceeds a predetermined maximum confidence score; generating, based on the second determination, a failure report associated with the DCC, wherein the report comprises at least the current state of the DCC and future state of the DCC; and providing the failure report to a vendor of the DCC to notify an administrator of the vendor.

Abstract: A method for recovering a data center, includes making a determination, by a cloud module, that the data center has experienced a failure; sending, by the cloud module and in response to the determination, an infrastructure file including data center infrastructure information to a client device; receiving, after sending the infrastructure file, a confirmation from the client device that at least a portion of the data center infrastructure is installed; sending, from the cloud module to the data center module, a snapshot in response to the confirmation; deploying, by the data center module, the snapshot at the data center; validating, by the data center module, complete connectivity of data center; sending, by the data center module, a heartbeat signal to the cloud module in response to the validating; and sending, by the cloud module, a standby signal to disaster recovery resources in response to receiving the heartbeat signal.

Abstract: A method for managing an authentication includes establishing, by a server device, a secured network channel with a client, providing, via the secured network channel, a private key to the client, after the providing, obtaining, from the client, a request for establishing a session with the client via a second network channel, in response to the request: sending a challenge request to the client, obtaining a challenge response associated with the challenge request, wherein the challenge response specifies a first challenge answer, performing a challenge processing using a private key to generate a second challenge answer, making a determination, using the first challenge answer and the second challenge answer, that the client is authenticated, and based on the determination, initiating the session with the client.

Abstract: A method for managing restoration includes receiving, by a restoration orchestrator, a restoration request for the restoration by a restoring device, in response to the restoration request: identifying a downtime preparation time for the restoration, collecting, during the downtime preparation time, service requests from the restoring device, forwarding the service requests to a digital twin device, after the forwarding, making a determination that the downtime preparation time is complete, and based on the determination, initiating a re-servicing of the restoring device, wherein the restoration is complete after the determination.

Abstract: A method for managing a data center includes: intercepting a data transfer request; making a determination that the request is valid; initiating, based on the determination, a data transfer operation by sending a notification to a client; analyzing a data package to infer components of the package, in which the package comprises data chunks and client-based hash values (CBHVs) associated with the data chunks; generating, based on the analysis, data center-based hash values (DCHVs) corresponding to the data chunks; populating a hash mapping lookup table to store the CBHVs and DCHVs; obtaining storage location information of the data chunks from storage; updating, based on the information, a storage location map; and initiating notification of a user of the client about completion of the operation.
