Abstract

Techniques disclosed herein are well suited to restoring deduplicated backup data from cloud-based storage and from multi-node replicated files systems, and they also improve performance in more traditional data storage technologies. Pre-restore steps include analysis of deduplication indexes to identify data segments that are stored consecutively on storage media. Reading data in aggregate runs of consecutively stored data segments reduces interactions with storage media that hosts the deduplicated data and speeds up retrieval. Parallel reads from multiple storage devices in multi-node replicated file systems also speed up retrieval. An illustrative enhanced media agent pre-fetches data (stored in deduplicated form) in anticipation of read requests that are expected in the restore operation. The pre-fetched data is temporarily stored locally at the media agent, which is responsible for interfacing with storage media and is further responsible for orchestrating the disclosed techniques within an illustrative data storage management system.

Claims (39)

1. A system comprising:

a first computing device comprising one or more hardware processors,

wherein the first computing device is communicatively coupled to one or more data storage resources, wherein a backup copy is stored at the one or more data storage resources, wherein the backup copy comprises a plurality of data segments including a first data segment, and wherein the plurality of data segments are stored with deduplication at the one or more data storage resources;

wherein the first computing device is configured to:

receive a first read request for the first data segment of the backup copy,

parse one or more metadata indexes to identify a first data file that comprises the first data segment, wherein the first data file is stored at the one or more data storage resources,

based on a first metadata index among the one or more metadata indexes, wherein the first metadata index corresponds to the first data file,

generate a first list of data segments that are physically stored consecutively in the one or more data storage resources, wherein the first list includes the first data segment,

issue a second read request to the one or more data storage resources for all the data segments of the first list,

store all the data segments of the first list, including the first data segment, at a data storage area configured at the first computing device,

serve the first data segment, in response to the first read request, from the data storage area configured at the first computing device, and

in response to one or more third read requests for one or more second data segments among the plurality of data segments of the backup copy: determine that the one or more second data segments are among the data segments of the first list, and serve the one or more second data segments from the data storage area configured at the first computing device.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more data storage resources are configured in a cloud computing environment.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more metadata indexes are stored at the one or more data storage resources.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more metadata indexes are stored at the first computing device.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein a response time to one of the one or more third read requests served from the data storage area configured at the first computing device is less than a corresponding response time of reading one of the one or more second data segments from the one or more data storage resources responsive to the one of the one or more third read requests.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more data storage resources comprise folders, each folder comprising a metadata index, among the one or more metadata indexes; and wherein the first metadata index indicates where the first data segment is stored at the one or more data storage resources.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first metadata index comprises a respective link to each of the data segments of the first list, including a first link to the first data segment, and wherein a second metadata index among the one or more metadata indexes comprises a second link to the first data segment.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the second link in the second metadata index represents the first data segment in deduplicated form.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first read request and the one or more third read requests are issued in a restore operation of the backup copy.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first read request and the one or more third read requests are part of restoring the backup copy from a deduplicated backup format at the one or more data storage resources to a primary data format that is natively accessible to an application at a computing device.

11. A computer-implemented method comprising:

by a first computing device comprising one or more hardware processors, wherein the first computing device is communicatively coupled to one or more data storage resources, wherein a backup copy is stored at the one or more data storage resources, wherein the backup copy comprises a plurality of data segments including a first data segment, and wherein the plurality of data segments are stored with deduplication at the one or more data storage resources:

receiving a first read request for the first data segment of the backup copy;

identifying, based on parsing one or more metadata indexes, a first data file that comprises the first data segment, wherein the first data file is stored at the one or more data storage resources;

based on a first metadata index among the one or more metadata indexes, wherein the first metadata index corresponds to the first data file, generating a first list of data segments that are physically stored consecutively in the one or more data storage resources, wherein the first list includes the first data segment;

issuing a second read request to the one or more data storage resources for all the data segments of the first list;

storing all the data segments of the first list, including the first data segment, at a data storage area configured at the first computing device;

serving the first data segment, in response to the first read request, from the data storage area configured at the first computing device; and

in response to one or more third read requests for one or more second data segments among the plurality of data segments of the backup copy: determining that the one or more second data segments are among the data segments of the first list, and serving the one or more second data segments from the data storage area configured at the first computing device.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more data storage resources are configured in a cloud computing environment.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more metadata indexes are stored at the one or more data storage resources.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more metadata indexes are stored at the first computing device.

15. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more data storage resources comprise folders, each folder comprising a metadata index, among the one or more metadata indexes; and wherein the first metadata index indicates where the first data segment is stored at the one or more data storage resources.

16. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the first metadata index comprises a respective link to each of the data segments of the first list, including a first link to the first data segment, and wherein a second metadata index among the one or more metadata indexes comprises a second link to the first data segment, wherein the second link in the second metadata index represents the first data segment in deduplicated form.

17. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the first read request and the one or more third read requests are issued in a restore operation of the backup copy.

18. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the first read request and the one or more third read requests are part of restoring the backup copy from a deduplicated backup format at the one or more data storage resources to a primary data format that is natively accessible to an application at a computing device.

19. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more data storage resources are part of a multi-node replicated file system; and wherein a plurality of other read requests issued by the first computing device to the one or more data storage resources operate concurrently on distinct storage devices of the multi-node replicated file system.

20. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more data storage resources comprise a multi-spindle data storage device; and wherein a plurality of other read requests issued by the first computing device to the one or more data storage resources operate concurrently on the multi-spindle data storage device.
