Abstract

A method is used in managing data storage for databases based on application awareness. Content is received via any of a file system interface, a block based interface, and an object based interface to a data storage system, which executes a general purpose operating system. Based on software installed on the data storage system and running on the general purpose operating system, an application-aware management interface is used to provide a database interface to the data storage system. Based on the database interface, database queries are accepted at the data storage system.
