System and method for transfering data from a source machine to a target machine

摘要

Performing a synchronization operation is disclosed. A first processing thread is used to copy a first file from a first data storage to a second data storage using a first connection. A second processing thread is used to copy a second file from the first data storage to the second data storage using a second connection. The first file is copied substantially concurrently with the copying of the second file. The synchronization operation results in first copied file and a second copied file in the second data storage. A real-time replication operation is performed. The first copied file and the second copied file are updated in an order determined at least in part by an order in which changes were made to the first file and the second file, respectively, as stored in the first data storage.
