    Abstract: An illustrative method includes a storage management system ingesting a data item into a unified storage system via a storage system interface among a plurality of storage system interfaces associated with the unified storage system, determining, in response to the ingesting of the data item into the unified storage system, an operation based on the data item, and providing a notification of the operation to an orchestration system configured to manage an execution of the operation by a computing system associated with the unified storage system. In certain embodiments, the unified storage system may be implemented as compute-aware storage system such as a container orchestrator-aware storage system.
