Original Abstract Submitted
embodiments presented herein address issues related to discovery controller collaboration in multi-cloud operating environments, in which a resource storage system and a destination storage system may not be managed by the same team or process. therefore, providing a single centralized discovery controller (cdc) that can be directly utilized by both the source and destination may not be possible. to address the multi-datacenter configuration concerns, embodiments of a federated discovery controller (fdc) are disclosed. in one or more embodiments, an fdc comprises a primary cdc (pcdc) and one or more non-primary discovery controllers (ndcs). after initial configuration and connection establishment, a bi-directional connection between the pcdc and each ndc may be established for desired namespace discovery and storage capacity utilization across different discovery controllers.
