Abstract
A method for performing backup operations includes obtaining, by a stream allocator operating in a backup storage system, a plurality of media management entries, wherein a media management entry of the plurality of media management entries specifies a data object, a relative priority, and a maximum number of streams, selecting the media management entry based on the relative priority, allocating a number of backup streams to the data object based on the maximum number of streams, and initiating a transfer of a backup of the data object from the production host to the backup storage system.
