ACTIVE ARCHIVING OF DATA ON A DISTRIBUTED FILE SYSTEM

摘要

ABSTRACT ACTIVE ARCHIVING OF DATA ON A DISTRIBUTED FILE SYSTEM Systems and methods for active archiving of data onto a distributed file system are described. A data archiving system may implement archiving method, where the method includes receiving a request from an authenticated user to archive the data on to the distributed file system, wherein the data to be archived is located at a data source and transferring the data to be archived onto the distributed file system based on a distributed file transfer mechanism, wherein the data is one of a structured data and an unstructured data. The method further includes loading the data to be archived onto the distributed file system based on Hbase bulk load mechanism. The method also includes indexing the data loaded onto the distributed file system to generate at least one indices corresponding to the data, wherein the indexing comprises segmenting of data into plurality of index segments.
