BDRSuite’s proprietary VembuHive file system is a key component, which is an application-level file system that is designed to work on top of the existing file systems. This file system allows BDRSuite to store backup data in a highly efficient and organized manner.
One of the key features of the VembuHive file system is that it stores backup data in small, easily manageable chunks. By default, each chunk is 100 MB in size, but this can be configured to be larger or smaller depending on your needs.
BDRSuite stores backup data in small chunks for both full and incremental backups. This allows BDRSuite to easily access the data blocks it needs and quickly restore without having to deal with large, cumbersome files.
The metadata for each data block is stored in a PostgreSQL database, where it is organized and easily accessible. This includes the chunk name, seek position, block checksum, block size, and other relevant metadata. By storing this information in a database, BDRSuite can quickly and easily restore and manage backup data, making the process faster and more efficient.
