receiving a request for backing up stored data;

determining a backup requirement based on the request, the backup requirement comprising a requirement with respect to processing backup data of the stored data in a backup system;

determining a backup operation for processing the backup data based on the backup requirement;

processing the backup data in accordance with the backup operation, wherein processing the backup data comprises backing up the stored data;

verifying whether processing of the backup data by performing the backup operation meets the backup requirement; and

in response to the processing not meeting the backup requirement, adjusting the backup operation, wherein adjusting the backup operation comprises:

providing a user with an indication that the processing fails to meet the backup requirement;

receiving an instruction of adjusting the backup operation from the user based on the indication; and

adjusting the backup operation based on the instruction.

8. The device according to claim 7 , wherein determining the backup operation comprises:

determining a candidate backup operation set for processing the backup data; and

determining the backup operation from the candidate backup operation set based on system capabilities of the backup system.

9. The device according to claim 8 , wherein determining the backup operation based on the system capabilities comprises:

obtaining backup preference information from the backup requirement; and

determining the backup operation based on the system capabilities and the backup preference information.

10. The device according to claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises:

adjusting the backup operation according to determination of a change in the system capabilities and based on the change.

determining a candidate backup operation set for processing the backup data;

providing a user with the candidate backup operation set; and

determining the backup operation based on a candidate backup operation selected by the user from the candidate backup operation set.

12. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the backup operation comprises at least one of the following:

generating the backup data; and

deleting the backup data.

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable program code, which when executed by a computer processor enables the computer processor to perform a method, the method comprising:

receiving a request for backing up stored data;

determining a backup requirement based on the request, the backup requirement comprising a requirement with respect to processing backup data of the stored data in a backup system;

determining a backup operation for processing the backup data based on the backup requirement;

processing the backup data in accordance with the backup operation, wherein processing the backup data comprises backing up the stored data;

verifying whether processing of the backup data by performing the backup operation meets the backup requirement; and

in response to the processing not meeting the backup requirement, adjusting the backup operation, wherein adjusting the backup operation comprises:

providing a user with an indication that the processing fails to meet the backup requirement;

receiving an instruction of adjusting the backup operation from the user based on the indication; and

adjusting the backup operation based on the instruction.
