Abstract
Systems and methods for storing data in a data storage system that allows dynamic context-based data protection and distribution are disclosed. The method includes receiving a storage request and evaluating whether a storage policy is specified in the storage request. When the storage request specifies a storage policy, the data is stored according to the specified policy. When the storage request does not specify a storage policy, meta data and/or the data item itself may be evaluated to identify a storage policy. When a storage policy has been identified, store the data is stored according to the identified policy. When a storage policy has not been specified and cannot be identified, an error is returned.
