Abstract

Systems, methods, and software program products discussed herein can create a backup or replica of a master. A method can include receiving, at a backup server, a serialized stream of data representative of changes to a first file of a computer and sorting the received stream of data and storing the sorted data in a memory. The method can include sending an acknowledgment to the computer indicating that the stream of data was received, writing all the sorted data to a single second file, and merging, on the backup server, the written data with data representative of a backup of data on the computer in response to writing all the sorted data to the single second file.
