Abstract

A method and system for efficiently handling backup discovery operations. Specifically, the disclosed method and system entail enhancing breadcrumbs—e.g., persistent files that store status and other metadata information respective to performed asset backup operations—to further include unique transaction identifiers. These transaction identifiers may serve as markers for distinguishing which subset of breadcrumbs (rather than all breadcrumbs) to forward to a central management system during asset backup discovery operations. The disclosed method and system also implement batch processing architecture to regulate resource consumption on both the client and manager sides.
