Abstract

Replication of data from a primary computing system to a secondary computing system. The replication is single-threaded or multi-threaded depending on one or more characteristics of the data to be replicated. As an example, the characteristics could include the type of data being replicated and/or the variability on that data. Also, the multi-threading capabilities of the primary and secondary computing systems are determined. Then, based on the identified one or more characteristics of the data, the primary computing system decides whether to perform multi-threaded replication and the multi-threading parameters of the replication based on the one or more characteristics of that data, as well as on the multi-threading capabilities of the primary and secondary computing system.
