Abstract: A single system merges primary data storage, data protection, and intelligence. Intelligence is provided through in-line data analytics, and data intelligence and analytics are gathered on protected data and prior analytics, and stored in discovery points, all without impacting performance of primary storage. As data is written it is automatically mirrored for data protection as part of a High Availability (HA) process. Real-time analysis is done in-line with the HA processing, enabling a variety of data analytics. Data content can be mined from within files or blocks. The gathered intelligence is used to tag objects with extended metadata, enabling both valuable search options and rapid restore options. Data recovery begins with metadata restoration, followed by near-instantaneous access to “hot” regions of data being restored, allowing site operation to continue or resume while a restore is ongoing.

Abstract: The present invention is a system and method for identifying file system events over time using at least two consecutive backup images for the file system. Using consecutive backup images for the file system enables the present invention to identify whether files have been created, removed or altered between backup operations, without actually interfering or interacting with the file system itself. As a result, the information gathered may be compiled to generate a more accurate file system model for the backed up file system. As a further result, the present invention is a less invasive way to gather information about file system events.
