  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18327290 Titled 'OPTIMIZED CLIENT-SIDE DEDUPLICATION'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for improving client-side deduplication during the backup process. Client-side deduplication is a technique used to eliminate redundant data before sending it to a backup server.

In this method, two factors are considered: the cadence, which refers to the frequency of backups, and the change log resolution, which determines the level of detail in tracking changes. These factors are evaluated individually or in combination, using specific thresholds.

Based on whether these thresholds are met, client-side deduplication is either enabled or disabled. This means that if the values of the cadence and change log resolution meet the specified criteria, the system will perform deduplication to reduce the amount of data being backed up. If the thresholds are not satisfied, deduplication will not be applied.

Overall, this method aims to optimize the efficiency of client-side deduplication by dynamically adjusting its usage based on the specified thresholds.


Original Abstract Submitted

One example method includes optimizing client-side deduplication. When backing up a client, a cadence and a change log resolution are determined. These values are evaluated alone or in combination with respect to various thresholds. Client-side deduplication is enabled or disabled based on whether any one or more of the thresholds are satisfied.
