Deduplicated data processing rate control

摘要

Workers are configured for parallel processing of deduplicated data entities in chunks. The deduplicated data processing rate is regulated using a rate control mechanism. The rate control mechanism incorporates a debt/credit algorithm specifying which of the workers processing the deduplicated data entities must wait for each of a multiplicity of calculated required sleep times.

1. A system for deduplicated data processing rate control in a computing environment, the system comprising:
a rate control mechanism; at least one processor device, in communication with the rate control mechanism, operable in the computing environment for controlling the rate control mechanism, wherein the at least one processor device:
configures a plurality of workers for parallel processing of deduplicated data entities in a plurality of chunks, andregulates a deduplicated data processing rate using a rate control mechanism, the rate control mechanism incorporating a debt/credit algorithm specifying which of the plurality of workers processing the deduplicated data entities must wait for each of a plurality of calculated required sleep times.
