Claim Text:
1. A method of recommending a file storage location, comprising: receiving a file save request; plotting one or more data points onto one or more vectors, wherein a received data point is obtained from the file save request and one or more vector data points are obtained from a file system, wherein one or more data points correspond to metadata within a file data; creating one or more data clusters from the vector data points using a clustering mechanism, wherein the vector data points within a data cluster are grouped together using a clustering parameter that clusters the vector data points based on similar properties within the file data; locating the closest data cluster to the received data point, wherein a distance of the received data point to a first data cluster is measured and compared to a distance to a second data cluster; analyzing the data cluster closest to the received data point for a non-existence of a first majority destination folder; modifying, in response to the non-existence of the first majority destination folder, the clustering parameter of the clustering mechanism; determining a second majority destination folder using the modified clustering parameter; and recommending the second majority destination folder for the file save request.
