Abstract: Systems and methods provide on demand data storage by creating an unpartitioned storage pool; generating a unique volume identifier for a data storage volume at a predetermined location; pre-provisioning the data storage volume in a volume queue ready for use on-demand; and storing data on the data storage volume at the predetermined location on-demand.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for state consistent replication of client data set on a client computer by generating a snapshot of the client data set on a local volume; synchronizing with a remote server volume corresponding to the local volume to create a copy of the client data set on the remote server; performing a master to slave replication of the data set; and taking a snapshot of the server data set to create a mirror of the snapshot of the client data set on the server.

Abstract: A data recovery system includes a plurality of customer computers to be backed-up, each customer computer running a client software to communicate back-up data files; a system management platform coupled to the client software over the Internet, the system management platform receiving inputs from a web user portal to control operations of the client software and the system management platform to back up the customer computer; and two or more data storage silos, each including: a plurality of storage directors communicating with the client software; and a clustered data storage array.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide real-time reporting for a data storage volume by sampling one or more storage metrics on the volume on a periodic basis; packaging the metrics into one or more messages; queuing the messages at one or more message queuing servers; and delivering to predetermined receiving agents that store the messages in a database holding aggregate metrics for the volume and correlated by customer.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for backing up a computer with a distributed meta data store by splitting meta data from file data; storing the meta data for each file in a separate file; mapping the file data and meta data to an arbitrary file system; and reconstructing files for the arbitrary file system.

Abstract: A method for backing up a client data set on a computer by generating a manifest of the client data set and storing the manifest on a remote server along with a server data set corresponding to the client data set; taking a snapshot of the server manifest and data set; and comparing the manifest to the remote server data set and synchronizing the client dataset if a difference is detected.
