Disclosed herein is a method of managing data in a database management system comprising a first, master storage, node and a second node for performing operations on data stored in the database. The method comprises configuring the second node to perform a set of steps. The second node is configured to write data indicative of one or more operations on data to a set of log files. The second node segments the set of log files into a set of log file chunks For each of the log file chunks, the second node may transmit data from the database associated with a log file chunk to the first node and thereafter transmit the log file chunk to the first node. The segmenting and transmitting of the set of log files and their associated data may be performed asynchronously to the updating of the set of log files.
