Data managing method, an electric device, and a computer program product for efficient management of services
A method, an electronic device, and a computer program product for data management is disclosed. The method includes receiving a request for performing, on data, a first management operation related to a first storage device, the request indicating a type of the data. The method further includes determining a first service associated with the type of the data and enabling the first service to perform the first management operation on the data. Thus, resource consumption of a data manager at runtime may be substantially reduced, which saves resources to reduce operating cost of the data manager, and improves the user experience of users who use the data manager.
1. A method for data management, comprising:
receiving a request for performing, on data, a first management operation related to a first storage device, the request indicating a type of the data;
determining a first service associated with the type of the data, wherein the first service is a microservice;
maintaining a list of enabled services;
making, based on determining the first service, a first determination that the first service in not on the list of enabled services;
enabling, after receiving the request and based on the first determination, the first service to perform the first management operation on the data and adding the first service to the list of enabled services;
making a second determination that the first management operation is completed; and
disabling, based on the second determination, the first service and removing the first service from the list of enabled services, wherein disabling the first service causes the first service to stop using resources.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first management operation comprises at least one of the following:
backing up the data to the first storage device; and
recovering the data from the first storage device.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the type of the data indicates at least one of the following:
the data is application data,
the data is virtual machine data,
the data is storage device data, or
the data is container data.
4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
determining an amount of resources required to perform the first management operation on the data; and
if the amount of data of the type increases, allocating, based on the amount of resources, additional resources for performing the first management operation on the data.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the request further indicates that a second management operation related to a second storage device is to be performed on the data, the method further comprising:
determining a second service associated with the second management operation to be performed on the data; and
enabling the second service to perform the second management operation on the data.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the second management operation comprises at least one of the following:
backing up the data from the first storage device to the second storage device; and
recovering the data from the second storage device to the first storage device.
7. An electronic device, comprising:
at least one processing unit; and
at least one memory that is coupled to the at least one processing unit and stores instructions for execution by the at least one processing unit, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processing unit, cause the device to perform actions, and the actions comprise:
receiving a request for performing, on data, a first management operation related to a first storage device, the request indicating a type of the data;
determining a first service associated with the type of the data, wherein the first service is a microservice;
maintaining a list of enabled services;
making, based on determining the first service, a first determination that the first service in not on the list of enabled services;
enabling, after receiving the request and based on the first determination, the first service to perform the first management operation on the data and adding the first service to the list of enabled services;
making a second determination that the first management operation is completed; and
disabling, based on the second determination, the first service and removing the first service from the list of enabled services, wherein disabling the first service causes the first service to stop using resources.
8. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein the first management operation comprises at least one of the following:
backing up the data to the first storage device; and
recovering the data from the first storage device.
9. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein the type of the data indicates at least one of the following:
the data is application data,
the data is virtual machine data,
the data is storage device data, and
the data is container data.
10. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein the actions further comprise:
determining an amount of resources required to perform the first management operation on the data; and
if the amount of data of the type increases, allocating, based on the amount of resources, additional resources for performing the first management operation on the data.
11. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein the request further indicates that a second management operation related to a second storage device is to be performed on the data, the actions further comprise:
determining a second service associated with the second management operation to be performed on the data; and
enabling the second service to perform the second management operation on the data.
12. The electronic device according to claim 11 , wherein the second management operation comprises at least one of the following:
backing up the data from the first storage device to the second storage device; and
recovering the data from the second storage device to the first storage device.
13. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable program code, which when executed by a computer processor enables the computer processor to perform a method for data management, the method comprising:
receiving a request for performing, on data, a first management operation related to a first storage device, the request indicating a type of the data;
determining a first service associated with the type of the data, wherein the first service is a microservice;
maintaining a list of enabled services;
making, based on determining the first service, a first determination that the first service in not on the list of enabled services;
enabling, after receiving the request and based on the first determination, the first service to perform the first management operation on the data and adding the first service to the list of enabled services;
making a second determination that the first management operation is completed; and
disabling, based on the second determination, the first service and removing the first service from the list of enabled services, wherein disabling the first service causes the first service to stop using resources.
14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13 , the method further comprising:
determining an amount of resources required to perform the first management operation on the data; and
if the amount of data of the type increases, allocating, based on the amount of resources, additional resources for performing the first management operation on the data.
15. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the request further indicates that a second management operation related to a second storage device is to be performed on the data, the method further comprising:
determining a second service associated with the second management operation to be performed on the data; and
enabling the second service to perform the second management operation on the data.
