The subject invention relates to systems and/or methods that perform an authoritative and/or a non-authoritative restore of items in a data store. Backups are provided that include data associated with items and metadata related to the items that can include a history of operations and previous synchronizations to enable replications to converge after restoration. The operations that can be performed on the items include, for example, create, delete, update, move, etc. The items in the backups can be restored along with the metadata, which can be utilized to enable synchronization partners to converge based on a desired type of restoration.

A system and method for serialization and/or de-serialization of file system item(s) and associated entity(ies)is provided. A file system “item” comprises a core class which can include property(ies). An item can be simple or compound (e.g., includes other item(s) embedded in it). Associated with an item can be entity(ies) such as fragment(s), link(s) with other item(s) and/or extension(s). Through serialization, a consistent copy of the item and associated entity(ies), if any, can be captured (e.g., for transporting of the item and to reconstruct the item on a destination system). The serialization system includes an identification component that. identities entity(ies) associated with an item and a serialization component that serializes the item and associated entity(ies). The serialization component can further serialize a header that includes information associated with the item and associated entity(ies). The header can facilitate random access to the item and associated entity(ies) (e.g., allowing a reader to interpret/parse only the parts in which it is interested). The serialization system can expose application program interface(s) (API's) that facilitate the copying, moving and/or transfer of an item and its associated entity(ies) from one location to another location.

The subject invention relates to systems and methods that enable pausing and/or resuming a backup of file system items. The items are backed up in an order based on a unique property associated with each of the items. When the backup is paused, the unique property associated with a last backed up item prior to the pause is stored. Additionally, a timestamp associated with a snapshot from which the backup was taken can be stored with the unique property. Upon being resumed, the backup can continue from the paused location via utilizing the stored unique property. The backup can be resumed either employing an original snapshot associated with a time prior to the pause or a second snapshot related to a subsequent time. The subject invention can perform an initial backup of file system items and/or an incremental backup of such items. Additionally, the subject invention can support backing up a file system at disparate levels of granularity such as, for example, an item level.

Systems and methods are disclosed that facilitate providing page-level database restore functionality upon detection of a corruption event. Updates to a data page in a database can trigger generation of a snapshot of the data page, and an update log can be maintained that stores information related to page updates. Subsequent snapshots can be generated at predetermined intervals and can trigger truncation of a log segment and initiation of a new log segment. Upon detection of page corruption, a most-recent uncorrupt snapshot of the corrupt page can be identified, copied to the location of the corrupt page in the database, and modified according to the log segment associated with the uncorrupt snapshot to make the page current as of the corrupting event, all of which can be performed to restore the database without having to take the database offline.

A “lazy commit” allows database transactions to be committed faster by not waiting for log records of the transaction to be written to disk. When a system crash occurs during the commit process, transactions may be lost because the log data is not available to recreate the transaction. While lazy commits speed up processing, they also increase the potential for data inconsistency. This invention introduces the concept of “durable reads”—transactions that require isolation from lazy commit transactions and which must be guaranteed to read only durably committed data. When durable read transaction attempts to read data changed by a lazy commit transaction, the system ensures the lazy commit transaction's changes are first made durable.

Architecture that addresses an end-to-end solution for logical transactional replication from a shared-nothing clustered database management system, which uses adaptive cloning for high availability. This can be time based using a global logical timestamp. The disclosed architecture, used for refreshing stale clones, does not preserve user transaction boundaries, which is a more complex situation than where the boundaries are preserved. In such a scenario it is probable that for a given data segment no clone of the segment may contain the complete user transaction history, and hence, the history has to be pieced together from the logs of multiple different clones. This is accomplished such that log harvesting is coordinated with the clone state transitions to ensure the correctness of logical replication.

摘要:
A dataset is divided into pieces and stored at multiple locations and the system dynamically increases or decreases the number of storage locations where the pieces of the data set may be stored. A data structure comprises a first data field including a first index and a first element, and one or more data fields each with an index and an element. The elements of the one or more data fields include a token representing a location associated with the index of the first data field. A data row of a data set is mapped to the index of a data field using a second index. The second index is derived from a data row of the data set using a hash function. The second index is then mapped to the index of a data field included in the one or more data fields using a modulus function.
