Linux snapshots
$500-5000 USD
Paid on delivery
We need to develop software to create and restore snapshots in real time. The process should be small and light. Our targeted platform is a 600MHz Celeron-M with 256 MB system memory.
This snapshot software would be volume based and each snapshot should be stored in one file.
The shortest interval for creating each snapshot is daily.
Each snapshot will be taken from one or more of the server volumes.
These snapshots will be persisted on the disk for retrieval at a later time. We plan to keep 16 versions of the snapshots. There are two ways to remove an older version. One way is when the 17th version is created; the oldest version will be removed from the system. The second way is user's request.
We have our own distribution, and we will provide the GPL related source codes once accepted the bid.
The Linux kernel version is 2.6.13.
Besides to design and develop the project we expect from you a deep testing process and delivering the project without bugs.
The project should be written in C language.
Let me know if you have any question.
