The method also includes writing data packages onto the storage system over a predetermined time period. The method also includes, for each data type on each storage location, creating a workload distribution plan, where the workload distribution plan distributes a workload of the storage system to the storage location. The method also includes implementing the workload distribution plan on the storage system.

Abstract: Methods and systems for security monitoring and response include assigning an anomaly score to each of a plurality of event paths that are stored in a first memory. Events that are cold, events that are older than a threshold, and events that are not part of a top-k anomalous path are identified. The identified events are evicted from the first memory to a second memory. A threat associated with events in the first memory is identified. A security action is performed responsive to the identified threat.
