1. A system comprising:
a processor;
a memory; and
computer code stored in the memory, wherein the computer code, when retrieved from the memory and executed by the processor causes the processor to:
receive information about one or more nodes from a plurality of submitters, the one or more nodes being associated with:
a network,
mass data storage systems,
data characteristics including at least one of: data mass, data activity, bandwidth between at least two points, or latency;
data storage parameters,
one or more zone indicators, and
one or more Internet Protocol IP addresses,
wherein the plurality of submitters are registered contributors in providing aggregated data storage evidence;
identify, using the processor, a selected zone indicator received via a user interface;
select, using the processor, a subset of nodes based on the selected zone indicator, wherein each node in the subset of nodes is associated with the selected zone indicator;
generate, using the processor, an index score of the subset of nodes based at least in part on one or more data characteristics of each of the subset of nodes weighted according to a context, the index score indicating a metric of data accumulation; and
based at least in part on comparison of the index score to a threshold:
identify, using the processor, stale data for rotation; and
initiate, using the processor, rotation of the stale data from one or more mass data storage systems associated with the selected zone indicator, wherein rotation of the stale data includes one or more of: archiving, downgrading, or reprioritization of the stale data.
