SYSTEMS, METHODS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR PERFORMING REMOTE DATA STORAGE FOR CLIENT DEVICES

摘要

Remote data storage is performed for client devices that are associated with an enterprise, by performing the following automatically at a given client device in response to authorization from the given client device: obtaining metadata about the given client device; uploading the metadata to a remote data storage system and initiating an initial remote data storage to the remote data storage system using the metadata that was obtained. At the remote data storage system, a load balancing program may be executed to programmatically assign a given client device to a subset of remote data storage devices in response to obtaining the metadata about the given client device.
