sending the recovered data to a further backup client corresponding to a third backup system concurrently while sending the recovered data to the backup client corresponding to the second backup system, so as to transmit data to the third backup system via the further backup client.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining a hash value of data chunks in the file to be transmitted;
encrypting the hash value to obtain an encrypted hash value;
determining whether the encrypted hash value is present in a location mapping file; and
in response to determining that the encrypted hash value is absent in the location mapping file, transmitting the data chunks from the backup client to the second backup system and recording the encrypted hash value in the location mapping file.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
in response to determining that the encrypted hash value is present in the location mapping file, reading, from the location mapping file, location information of the data chunks in the second backup system, and notifying the second backup system to synthesize the data chunks.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein a plurality of truncated encrypted hash values are present in the location mapping file, each truncated encrypted hash value being mapped to a plurality of encrypted hash values including a truncated encrypted hash value.
9. An electronic device, comprising:
a processing unit; and
a memory coupled to the processing unit and storing instructions, the instructions, when executed by the processing unit, causing the device to perform acts of:
recovering data from a file to be transmitted in a first backup system;
sending the recovered data to a backup client corresponding to a second backup system, the backup client being installed in a container of the first backup system, wherein the container includes a recovering container and a data sending container, the recovering container configured to recover the data in the first backup system, the data sending container configured to send the recovered data to the second backup system, and the first and the second backup systems being different types of backup systems, wherein sending the recovered data to the backup client corresponding to the second backup system comprises:
in accordance with receiving, by a data transmission manager, a sending notification from the recovering container, allocating, by the data transmission manager, a memory for receiving data, the data transmission manager and the backup client being deployed in the data sending container;
sending, by the data transmission manager, a reading notification to the backup client;
notifying, by the data transmission manager, the recovering container to send the recovered data;

10. The device of claim 9 , wherein receiving the recovered data from the recovering container comprises:
determining, by the data transmission manager, whether an available storage resource is present in the memory;
in response to determining the available storage resource is present in the memory, continuing, by the data transmission manager, to receive the recovered data from the recovering container; and
in response to determining the available storage resources is absent in the memory, notifying, by the data transmission manager, the recovering container to suspend sending data.
