Abstract
Implementations are provided herein for enhanced antivirus scanning in distributed file storage systems. In embodiments, we disclose using predictive, heuristic data to determine prospectively a sequence of files that may be called by a client based upon relationships between an initial filed called by a client and other files stored in the distributed file system. The sequence of files likely to be called in the future could, in some embodiments, be determined using machine language trained to analyze past client behavior patterns. Once a predictive file sequence has been determined, embodiments herein send files likely to be called in the very near future to an antivirus server for processing during a time period that overlaps the AV processing period for the original file that was called.
