Abstract
The present application is directed to systems and methods for transferring data between data backup sites. A backup data transfer of data associated with a client device is scheduled, and backup data is transferred from a source data backup site to a destination data backup site. A backend process associated with the client device is suspended, and a determination is made as to whether all backup data for the client has transferred from the source backup data site to the destination backup data site. Responsive to the determination, the backend process associated with the client device is resumed.

A method for transferring data between data backup sites, comprising:
- transferring backup data from a source data backup site to a destination data backup site based on a scheduled backup data transfer, the backup data comprising data associated with a client device;
- suspending a backend process associated with the client device;
- determining whether all backup data for the client device transferred from the source backup data site to the destination backup data site;
- and
- resuming the backend process associated with the client device.
A system for transferring data between data sites, the system comprising:
- a device executing a user data backup transfer module configured to:
- transfer backup data from a source data backup site to a destination data backup site based on a scheduled backup data transfer, the backup data comprising data associated with a client device;
- suspend a backend process associated with the client device;
- determine whether all backup data for the client device transferred from the source backup data site to the destination backup data site;
- and
- resume the backend process associated with the client device.
