Claim 16:
17. A system for managing data protection services for data clusters, the system comprising:
persistent storage for storing a data cluster component inventory repository;
a mapping module of a data protection manager, comprising a processor and memory, configured to:
identify a discovery event associated with a data cluster;
in response to identifying the discovery event, by the mapping module:
send a request for currently deployed data cluster components to a data cluster manager associated with the data cluster;
obtain data cluster component inventory information associated with the data cluster from the data cluster manager;
make a first determination that the currently deployed data cluster components comprise changed data cluster components using the data cluster component inventory information; and
in response to the first determination:
map protection policy types to newly deployed data cluster components of the data cluster using the data cluster component inventory information and component data protection information;
update a data cluster component inventory repository using the data cluster component inventory information; and
initiate performance of data protection services for the newly deployed data cluster components based on the mapped protection policy types.
