Patent number: 10853185Abstract: According to one embodiment, a system in response to a request to back up a virtual machine to a backup storage system, generates a snapshot of the virtual machine. The system identifies one or more files within the snapshot that satisfy a predetermined criterion. If the one or more files are identified, the storage system backs up a modified representation of the snapshot by, analyzing the snapshot to determine addresses of the identified one or more files within the snapshot, and substituting content of the identified one or more files at the addresses with a predetermined data pattern. The system deduplicates the modified representation of the snapshot to remove duplicated data segments and copies data segments of the modified representation of the snapshot to the backup storage system such that data segments to be copied to the backup storage system is minimized.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2017Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: EMC IP HOLDING COMPANY LLCInventors: Crystal Guo, Walter Wang, Derro Xu, Qingxiao Zheng, Baoli Guo

Patent number: 9778850Abstract: Described are techniques for processing a write operation that writes first data to a target location of a logical address range of a logical device. It is determined whether the target location is mapped to physical storage. Responsive to determining that the target location is not mapped to physical storage, performing first processing to service the write operation. The first processing includes sending the write operation along with a hint to a caching layer where the hint indicates to store zeroes to locations that do not include user data. The caching layer forms a data portion denoting data stored at a logical address subrange of the logical device. The logical address subrange includes the target location. The data portion includes the first data and zeroes stored at remaining locations of the logical address subrange not including user data. The data portion is stored in cache by the caching layer.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2015Date of Patent: October 3, 2017Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Gang Cao, Shay Harel, Walter Wang, Feng Zhang, Zhu Zhang
