Storage services configured for storage-oriented applications

摘要

The subject technology provides for receiving, via an application programming interface (API), a request from a client, the request including software configuration data for configuring data storage for supporting a workload of an application. A set of hardware performance characteristics for supporting the workload of the application is determined based at least in part on the software configuration data that includes a name of a respective software application and/or version of the software application. The subject technology determines a current set of available hardware resources that match the set of hardware performance characteristics. Using the current set of available hardware resources, a set of data stores are provisioned. The subject technology then provides, to the client, information related to a virtual mount point for provisioning the set of data stores to the application.
