Claim One:
1. A data analytics system comprising: a. one or more processors programmed to operate primary node software, wherein the primary node software: i. intercepts data access requests; ii. mirrors data referenced in the data access requests to provide high availability for data included in the data access requests; iii. executes in-line analytics on the data access requests to provide analytics metadata; iv. forwards the analytics metadata to intelligence node software; and v. directs the data access requests to a primary storage pool; b. one or more processors programmed to operate the intelligence node software, wherein the intelligence node software: vi. receives analytics metadata from the primary node software; vii. stores the mirrored data to an intelligence storage pool; viii. performs further analytics on mirrored data and/or previously executed in-line analytics ix. creates discovery points within the intelligence pool; and c. the primary node software and intelligence node software further, upon an indication of a need to restore data, cooperate to perform a live restore operation to the primary pool from the intelligence pool using the analytics metadata.
