Abstract

A plurality of data objects is generated from a data stream received for constructing a backup image. A stream size of the data stream is determined. For each multi-threaded put operation used to write a data object of the plurality of data objects to a cloud storage, a maximum number of threads is determined into which the data object can be separated into a number of parts for simultaneous transmission to the cloud storage. A part size of each part is determined. A number of multi-threaded put operations is determined for writing the plurality of data objects to the cloud storage based, at least in part, on the stream size, the maximum number of threads into which the data object can be separated, and the part size. The plurality of data objects is stored into the cloud storage using the number of multi-threaded put operations.
