Abstract
The system and method of the present disclosure relates to technology for reducing the amount of data stored in a storage system by processing subsets of data stored in data sources using advanced analytics. The process generally includes extracting data from data sources for analysis by ranking the data, marking the data, identifying pattern changes in the data, comparing pattern changes in the data and purging and/or masking the data for storage. The system also includes databases for storing and defining rules, patterns, policies and classification data to be applied to the data from the data sources and analytics to apply the rules, patterns, policies and classification information on the data. As a result, the data stored in the data sources is reduced, and processing efficiency is increased.
