About IBM Storage Defender Data Management Service
IBM Storage Defender Data Management Service is a SaaS-based management platform that provides a single view and global management of all your IBM Storage Defender Data Protect clusters, whether on-premises, cloud or Virtual Edition, regardless of cluster size. You can quickly connect clusters to Data Management and then access them from anywhere using an internet connection and your IBMid credentials.
Data Management provides you with the following features:
- Multi-cluster management
- Actively manage all your clusters, including multi-cluster monitoring and reporting, from a single dashboard.
- Global actionable search
- Search across clusters and take action directly from the search results page. For example, search for all unprotected VMs and create jobs to protect them.
- SmartAssist
- Automatically schedule and orchestrate jobs and workloads to help meet SLAs. Get recommendations based on capacity forecasting and disk failure prediction. View important Data Management field notices.
- Security tools
- Detect threats and other anomalies across clusters with the unified Alerts page.
Changes that you make directly to the cluster while using Data Management might not appear in the Data Management Dashboard for fifteen minutes.
In Data Management, the data and metadata are secured by using different services based on the use case.
