Abstract
Machines and methods for optimizing data storage among a plurality of data storage repositories are provided. The method comprises processing a data request submitted for storing data on one or more data storage mediums; determining whether duplicate copies of the data are to be maintained on more than one storage medium so that established quality of service requirements are met; and managing duplicate copies of the data on said one or more data storage mediums to meet the established quality of service requirements while servicing the data request.
