REPLICATION TO THE CLOUD

摘要

Systems, methods, and computer readable storage mediums for replicating data to the cloud. A first dataset is replicated from a first storage subsystem to the cloud, with only the changes made to the first dataset since a previous replication event being replicated to the cloud. Additionally, the data may be deduplicated and compressed before being replicated from the first storage subsystem to the cloud. In some cases, the first dataset may be replicated to the cloud in a stream format which is not directly usable and then, at a later point in time, loaded onto a second storage subsystem from the cloud.

1. A system comprising:
a first storage subsystem comprising a local dataset; and a cloud-based server comprising a remote dataset; wherein the first storage subsystem is configured to:
identify a change to the local dataset;deduplicate and compress data associated with the change; andsend the deduplicated and compressed data to the cloud-based server; wherein the cloud-based server is configured to:
receive the deduplicated and compressed data; andstore an identification of said change.
