Device And Method For Merging Backup Policies - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18156851 titled 'Device And Method For Merging Backup Policies

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a device that merges backup policies for a backup object. It determines if two backup policies are assigned to the backup object and generates a merged backup policy based on these two policies. The merged policy ensures that the resource consumption of the resulting backup is below a predefined threshold.

  • The device determines if two backup policies are assigned to a backup object.
  • It generates a merged backup policy based on these two policies.
  • The merged policy ensures that the resource consumption of the resulting backup is below a predefined threshold.

Potential Applications

  • Data backup and recovery systems
  • Cloud storage services
  • Enterprise backup solutions

Problems Solved

  • Simplifies the management of backup policies for backup objects
  • Ensures efficient resource utilization during the backup process

Benefits

  • Streamlines the backup policy merging process
  • Reduces resource consumption during backups
  • Improves overall backup efficiency and performance


Original Abstract Submitted

A device for merging backup policies is configured to determine, if a first backup policy comprising a first set of rules, and a second backup policy comprising a second set of rules, are assigned to a backup object. The device is further configured to, when the first backup policy and the second backup policy are assigned to the backup object, generate a merged backup policy comprising a merged set of rules, based on the first backup policy and the second backup policy. A resource consumption of a backup created according to the merged backup policy is below a predefined threshold.
