    Abstract: Techniques are provided for on-demand creation and/or utilization of containers and/or serverless threads for hosting data connector components. The data connector components can be used to perform integrity checking, anomaly detection, and file system metadata analysis associated with objects stored within an object store. The data connector components may be configured to execute machine learning functionality to perform operations and tasks. The data connector components can perform full scans or incremental scans. The data connector components may be stateless, and thus may be offlined, upgraded, onlined, and/or have tasks transferred between data connector components. Results of operations performed by the data connector components upon base objects may be stored within sibling objects.

    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or computing devices are provided for cross-platform replication. For example, a replication relationship may be established between a first storage endpoint and a second storage endpoint, where at least one of the storage endpoints, such as the first storage endpoint, lacks or has incompatible functionality to perform and manage replication because the storage endpoints have different storage platforms that store data differently, use different control operations and interfaces, etc. Accordingly, replication destination workflow, replication source workflow, and/or a proxy representing the first storage endpoint may be implemented at the second storage endpoint comprising the replication functionality. In this way, replication, such as snapshot replication, may be implemented between the storage endpoints by the second storage endpoint using the replication destination workflow, the replication source workflow, and/or the proxy that either locally executes tasks or routes tasks to the first storage endpoint such as for data access.

    Abstract: Data is replicated on a backup node, where the granularity of the replication can be less than a full volume. A data consistency group comprising a subset of data for a volume is defined for a primary node. A set of differences for the data consistency group is sent to a backup node. The backup node creates change logs in response to receiving the set of differences. In response to receiving a request to access a file having data in the data consistency group, the backup node creates a clone of the file. The backup node determines whether an update to a data block of the file exists in the change logs. In response to determining that the update to the data block exists in the change logs, the backup node updates a copy of the data block for the cloned file with data in the change logs.

    Abstract translation: 数据在备份节点上复制,其中复制的粒度可以小于完整卷。 为主节点定义包括卷的数据子集的数据一致性组。 数据一致性组的一组差异被发送到备份节点。 备份节点创建更改日志以响应接收到一组差异。 响应于接收到访问具有数据一致性组中的数据的文件的请求,备份节点创建该文件的克隆。 备份节点确定在更改日志中是否存在对该文件的数据块的更新。 响应于确定更改日志中存在对数据块的更新,备份节点使用更改日志中的数据更新克隆文件的数据块的副本。
