Abstract: A system and method that provides for the backup and recovery of personalized user data. An exemplary method includes storing user data files in electronic memory of a user device, continuously tracking user actions by one or more user devices to detect interact with at least one external resource; determining whether the tracked user actions have modified one or more of the plurality of user data files; and if the processor determines that the tracked user actions have modified a user data file, storing the modified user data file in a data storage system.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for data storage in a distributed data storage system. An exemplary method includes generating derivatives of a file using an (n,k) algorithm, such that k number of derivatives can be used to restore the file. Moreover, the derivatives are stored in nodes in a multilevel tree representing the distributed data storage system and a rank is calculated that indicates a fault tolerance of the file. The method further determines whether the rank is greater than or equal to k to ensure reliability of recoverability of the file. If the rank less than k, the method reorders one or more derivatives to a different node and/or store one or more additional derivative from the file.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for performing a backup of electronic data. An example method includes storing a first incremental data backup of a dataset that is less than a complete backup of the dataset and includes unmodified and modified portions of the dataset. Then, a second incremental data backup of the dataset is stored that includes a second unmodified portion of the dataset different than the first unmodified portion. The method then determines whether the first and second incremental data backups together form the complete backup of the dataset. If they do not, the method further stores a subsequent incremental data backup of the dataset in the electronic memory that includes an additional unmodified portion of the dataset and/or an additional modified portion of the dataset.

Abstract: A method and system is provided for optimization of restoration and loading of an operating system of a computer. An exemplary method includes initiating a loading of the operating system of the computer and intercepting a read request of data of a data volume from the operating system. Furthermore, the method includes determining whether the data has previously been restored during the loading of the operating system, and, if the data has previously been restored, performing the read request and returning to the loading of the operating system of the computer. Alternatively, if the data has not previously been restored, determining whether the data is stored in cache of the computer. If the data is not be stored in the cache, the method includes reading the data from a data archive and storing the data read from the data archive to the cache.
