Abstract

The disclosed computer-implemented method for load balancing backup data may include (1) receiving a request to backup files in a multi-node computing cluster, (2) identifying a backup distribution of the files among multiple backup clients, (3) reading an initial data block of a current file from a data node in the cluster, (4) reading a copy of the initial data block of an additional file from another data node in the cluster, (5) reading a subsequent data block of the current file from the data node in the cluster, and (6) balancing backup of the current and additional files among the data node and the another data node by reading a copy of a subsequent backup data block of the additional file from the another data node in the multi-node computing cluster. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
