Low cost, heterogeneous method of transforming replicated data for consumption in the cloud
Abstract:
Various systems, methods and apparatuses for replicating data from homogeneous and/or heterogeneous primary computing systems to a single recovery computing system are presented. In one embodiment, the methods, systems and apparatuses described herein allow a computing system to receive information from a remote computing system, where the information contains at least data and a logical storage location corresponding to the location of the data in a logical storage unit of the remote computing system. Upon receiving the data and associated logical storage location, the methods, systems and apparatuses described herein can store the information at a specific location in a storage device such as, for example, a block storage device. The specific location can be determined, for example, based on the logical storage location provided by the remote computing system and an offset associated with the starting location of the relevant logical storage unit on the storage device.
