Abstract

A method and system for method for replicating object consisting of creating a group of objects at a first location; transmitting the group of objects from a first location to a second location over a network coupling the first location to the second location, such that the number of transmissions is minimized receiving the group of objects at the second location; and storing the group of objects at the second location. The objects are preferably data objects and are collated into group based on a probability score is computed for each data object centered on an access pattern. Advantages include minimizing the number of transmission of the group of objects thereby reducing network traffic and failure of operation during replication of the objects.
