System and method for secure recovery of application group in container deployment environments

A method for secure recovery of an application group in a container deployment environment, the method comprising:

• accessing an application group token corresponding to the application group and generating a corresponding backup token when a backup of the application group is initiated;
• initiating a backup based on the backup token and creating a corresponding recovery point on a backup server;
• accessing a recovery access token for a determined recovery point when a recovery of the application group is initiated;
• generating a recovery token corresponding to the determined recovery point based on the recovery access token;
• initiating a recovery of the application group from the backup server in the destination cluster based on the recovery token;
• wherein the recovery access token comprises information corresponding to the determined recovery point and one or more of a destination cluster ID, a cloud ID, or a region ID;
• and
• further comprising verifying the recovery access token by matching a cluster ID in the recovery access token with a destination cluster token before generating the recovery token.

A system for secure recovery of an application group in a container deployment environment, the system comprising:

• a backup controller configured to access an application group token corresponding to the application group and generate a corresponding backup token when a backup of the application group is initiated;
• a backup module configured to initiate a backup based on the backup token and create a corresponding recovery point on a backup server;
• a recovery access token module configured to access a recovery access token for a determined recovery point when a recovery of the application group is initiated;
• a recovery controller configured to generate a recovery token corresponding to the determined recovery point based on the recovery access token;
• a recovery module configured to initiate a recovery of the application group from the backup server in a destination cluster based on the recovery token;
• wherein the recovery access token comprises information corresponding to the determined recovery point and one or more of a destination cluster ID, a cloud ID, or a region ID;
• and
• wherein the recovery controller is configured to generate the recovery token based on the cloud ID and the region ID if the cluster ID field is empty in the recovery access token, and the recovery module is configured to initiate the recovery of the application group in any cluster corresponding to the cloud ID and the region ID.
