Abstract

A method and apparatus for dynamically adjusting an ingestion rate for backup operations on a source system. The method generally includes monitoring a resource utilization related to one or more performance metrics of the source system in performing at least a primary workload. Based on the monitored resource utilization, the backup system determines a data ingestion rate for backup operations on the source system. The backup system ingests data from the source system to a backup repository at the determined data ingestion rate.
