Techniques for persisting data across instances of a cloud shell

A computing system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory in communication with the one or more processors, the memory configured to store computer-executable instructions, and the one or more processors configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to at least:
• receive, by the computing system, a request from a session manager service to restore a user block volume with corresponding backup user data;
• receive, by the computing system, the corresponding backup user data from a backup service;
• provide, by the computing system, the corresponding backup user data to an empty block volume to create a restore volume;
• transmit, by the computing system, a restore volume identifier corresponding to a data center identifier associated with the restore volume to the session manager service;
• and
• attach, by the computing system, the restore volume to a reserved instance.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium, storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors of a computing system to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, by the computing device, a request from a session manager service to restore a user block volume with corresponding backup user data;
• receiving, by the computing device, the corresponding backup user data from a backup service;
• providing, by the computing device, the corresponding backup user data to an empty block volume to create a restore volume;
• transmitting, by the computing device, a restore volume identifier corresponding to a data center identifier associated with the restore volume to the session manager service;
• and
• attaching, by the computing device, the restore volume to a reserved instance.
