Background and Prior Art Description:
The process of taking backup of data stored on a computer is most commonly used in the present day in order to safeguard against loss of data due to various reasons. The process of retrieval is the process of obtaining from the backup location (backup server terminal) the data that has been lost. The loss of data could be in the form of a non-saving or improper saving of data which has been created newly or non-saving of changes that have been carried out on existing data or loss of data which was stored. Thus, whenever, in the present application, reference is made to recovery of lost data, it is intended to mean recovery of data which could be lost by any of the above-mentioned means.
Retrieval is a process of downloading data from a backup server terminal to a connected device (client terminal). Retrieval is done in the event of existence of lost data, new data or changed data.
Typically applications require users to manually select a file/content for retrieval by searching it in the server repository where the backup was taken. This assumes the following: 1. The user is aware that he/she has lost some data.
2. The user is aware that he/she has some extra data on the server which is not present on his/her device.
3. The user is aware that he/she has a file/content, which is modified on the server, and the same needs to be modified on his/her device also. 4. The user then selects list of content that he/she is interested in retrieving and then starts the retrieval process. This process of retrieval is incomplete and cumbersome for the following reasons:
1. The user is sometimes not aware of loss of data. Accidental deletion, deletion of files by software makes it difficult for a user to know what has been lost or what has been added or changed in the server repository by his/her other devices.
2. The user has to manually select what needs to be retrieved by searching the server backup repository.
3. This approach makes some of the loss go un-noticed and un-notified as a result, the retrieval is not timely and complete.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION: The main object of the present invention is to provide a method and a system for retrieving the lost, new or changed data from backup server terminal that overcomes at least one of the drawbacks mentioned above or provides additional benefits.

Summary of the Invention: Accordingly, the present invention provides a system and a method for retrieving data which is available on a backup server terminal but lost or not available at a user terminal which is connected to the backup server terminal. A list of data available on the backup server terminal and a list of data available at the user terminal are compared and sorted appropriately to generate a list of lost data which are to be retrieved from the backup server terminal. Once the list of lost data is generated, the list is checked to render the path and feasibility of retrieving the data or the file(s). Finally, the data or the file(s) is retrieved by selecting path and location in user device.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION: According to a first embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a system for retrieving data which is available on a backup server terminal but lost or not available at a user terminal which is connected to the backup server terminal, said system comprising: a) a user terminal (100);

In still another embodiment of the present invention, the rendering means (103) generates a Conflict Resolution Message upon the display means (108) if it finds a conflict with the existing content on the same location are found and the user is provided with the option of overwrite, save on another location and skip.
In one more embodiment of the present invention, the user terminal (100) is optionally provided with a decryptor and/or a decompressor means (106), if the backup server terminal (110) stores the backup information in encrypted and/or compressed format.
Accordingly the present invention also provides a single-click method for retrieving data from a backup server terminal to a user terminal, said method comprising the steps of: (i) generating a parking list containing entry of data to be retrieved;
(ii) rendering feasibility of retrieving each entry in the parking list, thereby generating a rendered parking list; and (iii) retrieving the data from the backup server terminal on to the user terminal in respect of each entry in the rendered parking list.
In an embodiment of the present invention wherein in step (i), the step of generating the parking list comprises: (i) receiving from the backup server terminal a list of the data stored thereupon;
(ii) generating a list of data stored on the user terminal; and
(iii) comparing the backup server terminal list and the user terminal list to generate the parking list, wherein each entry in the parking list is indicative of the data to be retrieved from the backup server terminal.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the parking list thus generated is sort- able according to new data or missing data or changed data.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the parking list thus generated categorize-able into a plurality of sub-categories based on the user terminal from which the content was uploaded or changed.
In yet another embodiment of the present invention, rendering the feasibility of retrieving an entry in the parking list comprises the step of: (a) rendering the validity of the data storage location; and/or
(b) rendering the validity of the data retrieval location.
In still another embodiment of the present invention, the rendered parking list contains data entries which are rendered feasible of being retrieved.
In a further embodiment of the present invention, in respect of entry in the parking list which is rendered as not feasible of being retrieved a Conflict Resolution Message is displayed to the user.
In a further more embodiment of the present invention, in respect of entry in the parking list which is rendered as not feasible of being retrieved, providing an opportunity to the user for changing the data storage location and/or the data retrieval location.
In an embodiment of the present invention, wherein if an entry in the parking list is rendered as not feasible of being retrieved because of a conflict in the data retrieval location, the user is provided with the option of overwrite, save on another location and skip.
In another embodiment of the present invention, wherein if an entry in the parking list is rendered as not feasible of being retrieved because of a conflict in the data storage location, the user is provided with the option of selecting a fresh data storage location and skip.
In one more embodiment of the present invention, the user is further provided with an option to decrypt and/or decompress if the backup information is stored on the server in encrypted and/or compressed format.
The present invention which is described hereafter in an elaborate way, introduces a single click retrieval process. This means that a user is already and automatically notified of the new, missing or changed data at the server through the client application.
On clicking a button "Retrieve AU", the user can retrieve all the content seamlessly on the client device. The user doesn't have to search for the data he has lost, added new or changed at the server.
1 -Click retrieval makes the entire process of retrieval painless and easy for users. It helps users to identify the missing, new and changed content and retrieve on a click of a button.
The client application brings down the list of the content from the server. This list is then matched from the list of the captured content on the client to find out new, missing and changed content. All the entries in the resultant list called "Parking List" are checked for the validity of the retrieval locations and are rendered to map the locations on the target client on which the content is going to be retrieved from the server.
This Parking List is displayed in a section of the application called "Parking Lot" which is again categorized according to the new, missing and changed files. These parking lists are also sub-categorized by the device from which the content was uploaded or changed.
On the event of retrieval, the every entry in the parking list is checked for validity of paths. If found conflicting with the existing content on the same location, application opens a Conflict Resolution Screen with the options to overwrite, save on another location and skip as three options for the user.
On the event of retrieval, the every entry in the parking list is checked for validity of file types. If there are some files in the parking list whose file types are not present in the allowed file types then a new screen add filter panel opens and from there user can select the file types to include in the inclusion filters. From this point onwards, these file types will start watching in client application.
User can also upload files from the web client. These will be coming in the missing file list with no client path and when user will click on "Retrieve All", these files will be retrieved top a new folder which can be stored for example, on the desktop.
If any entry in the Parking List has an invalid retrieval location (e.g. DA drive does not exist for a file to be retrieved at D:\Sample.txt), then Change Retrieval Location screen appears which allows all such files to be retrieved on a selected location.
Retrieval starts after gathering complete information for retrieving all the content. The complete information includes resolution of all the conflicts and user inputs. This is done in order to not interrupt the retrieval process in between. Hence, all the conflicts are resolved at the start of retrieval process for seamless execution. Even if there are some errors or further conflict that may arise during retrieval the concerned file is skipped and the system moves on to the next file automatically. If the information is not gathered at the start of the process, the user has to attend to the complete retrieval to solve the conflicts as and when they occur. Thus, 1 -Click retrieval ensures that the retrieval process can seamlessly work without any human intervention.
It requests the complete body of the content from the server one by one and saves it on the retrieval location pre-rendered by the application.
Example: The files, which are uploaded from a client to the server computer's desktop, may have a following path. "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Abc.txt"
The above path is based on the user who is operating the client application; in this case it is the administrator. In the event of a computer crash, the user wishes to retrieve back the data and this time the application is run by a different user account e.g. Userl. The path must be rendered such that the file is retrieved on the new user's desktop and the path must be rendered to the following: "C:\Documents and Settings\Userl\Desktop\Abc.txt"
This is one example of rendering the path of files being retrieved. If the pre-rendering step is not done, the new user will not be able to see the file being retrieved on his desktop.
Retrieval maintains the same hierarchy of the device from which the content was uploaded or changed at the server. The content is retrieved in a temporary location and decrypted and then decompressed to the original location.
1 -Click retrieval is also possible through the web site. Users can log on to the website through the user device and retrieve all their data in a single click without having a need to install the client application on the client computer.
In case of retrieving data on new machine, the data will be retrieved in a single click by the user.
