Publication number: 20230333768Abstract: Techniques are provided for object store mirroring. Data within a storage tier of a node may be determined as being data to tier out to a primary object store based upon a property of the data. A first object is generated to comprise the data. A second object is generated to comprise the data. The first object is transmitted to the primary data store for storage in parallel with the second object being transmitted to a mirror object store for storage. Tiering of the data is designated as successful once acknowledgements are received from both the primary object that the first object was stored and the mirror object store that the second object was stored.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 20, 2023Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Anil Paul Thoppil, Cheryl Marie Thompson, Qinghua Zheng, Jeevan Hunsur Eswara, Nicholas Gerald Zehender, Ronak Girishbhai Ghadiya, Sridevi Jantli

Publication number: 20230315577Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to providing protection groups and rapid determination of expired objects and associated storage resources in a cloud-based backup storage context. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques include generating, by a computing system, incremental backup data for a backup based on protection group information, including a set of cloud-based key-value data store buckets, filter information, and policy information. Disclosed techniques also include rapid determination of expired objects and associated storage resources. Disclosed techniques may advantageously provide a centralized view across buckets, accounts, and regions and allow users to target specific subsets of their data stores for backup, which may improve performance and reduce backup storage costs, relative to traditional techniques.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2022Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Chandan Sajjan Agarwal, Raghav Anand, Aniruddh Poornabodha Bharadwaj, Deepak Chawla, Xia Hua, Woonho Joseph Jung, Michal Stanislaw Ostrowski, Hung Hing Anthony Pang, Kanwaljeet Sachdev, Deepan Balajhi Saravanan, Richa Sehgal, Maadhav Kaushal Shah, Nicholas Gerald Zehender

Publication number: 20230315582Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to providing object-level incremental backups and data restoration management techniques in a cloud-based backup storage context. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques include generating, by a computing system, object-level differentials that maintain differences between successive inventories (e.g., added, deleted, and amended objects) and are used to perform incremental backups. Disclosed techniques also include restoration management methods that leverage parallelization, via chunks of data that may be processed in parallel by cloud worker modules, and protection group mechanisms to restore single buckets, multiple buckets, single objects, multiple objects, objects and buckets that match specific search criteria, etc. Disclosed techniques may advantageously improve performance of data backup and restoration operations, relative to traditional techniques.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2022Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Raghav Anand, Deepak Chawla, Xia Hua, Woonho Joseph Jung, Michal Stanislaw Ostrowski, Hung Hing Anthony Pang, Kanwaljeet Sachdev, Deepan Balajhi Saravanan, Richa Sehgal, Nicholas Gerald Zehender

Patent number: 11620071Abstract: Techniques are provided for object store mirroring. Data within a storage tier of a node may be determined as being data to tier out to a primary object store based upon a property of the data. A first object is generated to comprise the data. A second object is generated to comprise the data. The first object is transmitted to the primary data store for storage in parallel with the second object being transmitted to a mirror object store for storage. Tiering of the data is designated as successful once acknowledgements are received from both the primary object that the first object was stored and the mirror object store that the second object was stored.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2021Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: NetApp, Inc.Inventors: Anil Paul Thoppil, Cheryl Marie Thompson, Qinghua Zheng, Jeevan Hunsur Eswara, Nicholas Gerald Zehender, Ronak Girishbhai Ghadiya, Sridevi Jantli
