Abstract
Example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method, a system, and a computer program product for implementing a locator-identifier separation protocol for a virtual storage array. The method includes associating an endpoint identifier to a virtual storage array in a datacenter and associating a routing locator with the endpoint identifier in accordance with a locator-identifier separation protocol. Communications with the virtual storage array then may be directed according to the endpoint identifier via its association with the routing locator.
