TECHNIQUES FOR RENDERING USER INTERFACE DISPLAYS

Described are techniques for rendering a user interface display of an application. Inputs are provided to a mapping engine. The inputs may include environmental inputs, profiles (including customized user maps), capabilities, storage management patterns or maps, and historical data. The mapping engine determines, in accordance with the inputs, a set of operations relevant to a user that interacts with a user interface of the application at a current point in time. The set of operations may define a subset of functionality of the application customized for the user. A set of user interface elements may be rendered where the user interface elements rendered correspond to the set of operations relevant to the user.
