Abstract
A “Local Ingestion” (LI) Server resides and operates in the LAN of a business organization, and provides backup storage for data generated using various software applications locally installed on client terminals (“non-SaaS data”) and data generated using various SaaS applications accessed by client terminals via the Internet (“SaaS data”). The LI Server can receive data generated in a native format by either a local non-SaaS application or one or more SaaS applications and convert from different native data formats to an application platform-independent or “canonical” format for backed-up SaaS data and non-SaaS data. The LI Server may then analyze data generated using different source applications, and backed-up in a canonical format, so as to identify particular content, patterns, relationships, and/or trends and thereby extract valuable business-related or other information from multiple cross-platform files.
