Abstract
Techniques to replicate data involve obtaining, based on a state bitmap of the data, a first identifier indicating a snapshot difference of the data and a second identifier indicating an allocation state of the data, where the first identifier indicates that data in which pages in the data needs to be replicated from a source node to a target node, and the second identifier indicates which pages in the data are compressed together as a single compression group. Such techniques further involve generating scatter-gather information for replicating the data based on an input output (IO) capability of the target node, the first identifier, and the second identifier. Such techniques further involve replicating the data corresponding to the scatter-gather information from the source node to the target node. Accordingly, data transmission overheads during data replication can be reduced, and IO performance can be improved.
