CONTINUOUS DATA PROTECTION UNIT, RECOVERY UNIT FOR DATA PROTECTION AND METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18339679 titled 'CONTINUOUS DATA PROTECTION UNIT, RECOVERY UNIT FOR DATA PROTECTION AND METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a continuous data protection unit (CDP unit) that receives incoming data from a primary splitter in the form of change sets. The CDP unit consists of a CDP data mover and a CDP storage unit. The CDP data mover receives the change sets and writes recovery data based on these sets to both the CDP storage unit and a recovery unit that holds a copy of the recovery data.

  • The CDP unit receives incoming data from a primary splitter.
  • The incoming data is in the form of change sets.
  • The CDP unit includes a CDP data mover and a CDP storage unit.
  • The CDP data mover writes recovery data based on the change sets.
  • The recovery data is written to the CDP storage unit and a recovery unit.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Data backup and recovery systems
  • Continuous data protection solutions
  • Real-time data replication

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures continuous protection of data by capturing and storing change sets in real-time
  • Provides a reliable and efficient method for data recovery in case of data loss or system failure

Benefits of this technology:

  • Minimizes data loss by capturing and storing changes as they occur
  • Enables quick and efficient data recovery with the availability of recovery data
  • Reduces downtime and improves business continuity by ensuring continuous data protection


Original Abstract Submitted

A continuous data protection unit (CDP unit) is arranged to receive from a primary splitter, a copy of incoming data sent to a primary storage in the form of incoming change sets. The CDP unit comprises CDP data mover, and CDP storage unit. The CDP data mover is arranged to receive the incoming change sets and write recovery data based on one or more change sets to the CDP storage unit and to a recovery unit arranged to hold a copy of the recovery data.
