Abstract

In one aspect, performance optimization for data persistency in asynchronous replication setups includes creating at a source site of a data replication system, a snapshot (snapshot N) of input/output (IO) requests as part of a replication cycle, computing a delta of snapshot N and a previously created snapshot (snapshot N−1), and transmitting the delta to a target site of the data replication storage system. An aspect further includes storing, at the target site, snapshot N−1 during transmission of the delta, and caching the delta to a non-persistent storage device. Upon determining an occurrence of a loss event at the target site, a further aspect includes transmitting, by the target site, a request to retransmit the delta, retransmitting, by the source site, the delta to the target site, caching the delta to the non-persistent storage device until successful transmission of the delta, and committing the transmitted delta to permanent storage.
