Abstract

Embodiments are directed to performing block-based backups of data using dynamic save streams by parsing, in a backup manager component, a data saveset to convert the data into blocks, analyzing the blocks in a stream engine component to define a number and respective size of save streams to assign certain blocks to respective streams, and transmitting the save streams to a backup storage media to perform a backup operation.
