1. A method, comprising: determining, by a processing device of a replication system, a policy framework comprising a plurality of parameters to replicate a data object on a storage network, wherein the parameters comprise characteristics defining at least one of where, when, or how the data object is replicated on the storage network; generating a replication policy in view of the policy framework, wherein the parameters of the policy framework are updated in view of changes to values corresponding to resources of the storage network that are associated with the parameters; determining, by the replication system subsequent to the generating of the replication policy, attributes of the storage network to which the replication policy applies in view of the parameters of the policy framework, wherein the attributes comprise a specification of a property of at least one of the data object or the resources of the storage network; detecting a change in one of the attributes; generating a new parameter of the policy framework in view of the change in the detected attribute of the storage network; and entering the generated new parameter into the policy framework.
