  • Dynamically directing data in a deduplicated backup system
    Patent number: 10761945
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for dynamically directing data in a deduplication backup system. A computer system identifies a data type for the data. The computer system determines whether the data is suitable for deduplication in the deduplication backup system based on the data type identified for the data and a policy. The computer system directs the data to a deduplication storage pool responsive to the data having the data type that is suitable for deduplication, reducing storage usage issues for backing up the data in the computer system.

  • Pre-Fetching and Staging of Restore Data on Faster Tiered Storage
    Publication number: 20190310920
    Abstract: Pre-fetching and staging restore data is provided. A set of data corresponding to a client device is collected from each respective data source in a plurality of data sources. A score is determined for each set of data collected. A probability of receiving a request to restore backup data on the client device is predicted based on analysis of the set of data from each respective data source and the score for each set of data. It is determined whether the predicted probability of receiving a request to restore the backup data on the client device is greater than a threshold. In response to determining that the predicted probability of receiving a request to restore the backup data on the client device is greater than the threshold, the backup data of the client device is preemptively moved to a fastest data storage tier in a multi-tiered backup data storage system.
