Abstract
Systems and methods for dynamic context based data protection and distribution are described herein. In the method data replication in a multi-zone storage system automatically changes based on historical storage trends and/or external information obtained from third party information sources, such as feeds, websites, news alerts, emergency alerts, weather alerts and databases. The methods include monitoring third party information sources and evaluating a correlation between event data from the third party information sources and key words that are user provided and/or system derived. A correlation between the event data and data storage history is evaluated. A storage policy is derived based on the results of the correlation evaluation(s). The derived storage policy and corresponding key words are stored in a database. Data is stored in storage arrays according to storage policies corresponding to the key words identified in the data.
