Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the existing data deduplication technology, most of the fixed-length data block cutting methods are used to cut the files to be backed up. Update, etc. At this time, if the traditional fixed-length data block cutting method is used, even if the amount of data modified in the original backup file is small, the existing data blocks in the original file will be moved sequentially, so the changed file The number of duplicate data blocks found in the previous backup will be reduced, which will reduce the efficiency of data deduplication and cause more data blocks to be transmitted to the server. This will increase the consumption of network bandwidth on the one hand, and on the other hand will Increase server-side data storage

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a data processing method, which comprises the following steps of: calculating fingerprint data of each data block of a file to be backed up and fingerprint data of the data block after the offset of the address of each data block of the file to be backed up is progressively increased; sending the fingerprint data of each data block of the file to be backed up and the fingerprint data of the data block after the offset of the address of each data block of the file to be backed up is progressively increased to a server to compare with the fingerprint data of each data block of a file stored by the server and the fingerprint data of the data block after the offset of each data bock of the stored file is progressively increased; and sending the changed data to the server according to the comparison result sent by the server. The deletion rate of the repeated data can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the storage field, in particular to a data processing method and device. Background technique [0002] As the amount of enterprise data continues to increase, a large amount of duplicate data poses severe challenges to storage. Data de-duplication (De-Dupe for short), as an important technology for effectively reducing data and reducing data storage costs, has become the focus of everyone's attention. [0003] In the implementation of deduplication technology, the system calculates and checks the fingerprint data of a data block (or file), which is used to uniquely identify a file or a data block of a file, and judges whether the data block is consistent with Stored metadata is duplicated. If it is a duplicate, you only need to keep a pointer to this metadata, and if the fingerprint data shows that the data block is brand new, then keep the data block and use it as metadata for later use. [0004] In the existing data dedupl...
