US 2026/0093583 A1 · TECHNIQUES FOR PROVIDING DATA BACKUP CONFIGURATIONS AS A SERVICE

Abstract

A data management system may deploy a virtual machine agent on a source data storage environment including a first set of computing resources managed by a user of a data management platform. In some examples, the virtual machine agent facilitates a connection between the source data storage environment and a target data storage environment including a second set of computing resources managed by the data management platform. The target data storage environment may be configured to automatically recover and restore data at the target data storage environment based on determining a failover event at the source data storage environment. The data management system may receive, from the user, a backup configuration configuring a schedule for backing up the data from the source data storage environment to the target data storage environment. The data management system may then perform a backup of the data in accordance with the backup configuration.

Dependent claims

A method for data management, comprising:

receiving, at a source data storage environment comprising a first set of computing resources, a virtual machine agent that comprises software code operable to facilitate a backup service between the source data storage environment and a target data storage environment, wherein the target data storage environment comprises a second set of computing resources managed by a data management platform, and wherein the virtual machine agent configures the source data storage environment to capture snapshots and archive the snapshots to the target data storage environment;
performing, by the virtual machine agent deployed on the source data storage environment, a backup of data from the source data storage environment to the target data storage environment;
and
outputting the backup of the data from the source data storage environment to the target data storage environment.

1 more element

An apparatus for data management, comprising:

one or more memories storing processor-executable code;
and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and operable to execute the code to cause the apparatus to:
receive, at a source data storage environment comprising a first set of computing resources, a virtual machine agent that comprises software code operable to facilitate a backup service between the source data storage environment and a target data storage environment, wherein the target data storage environment comprises a second set of computing resources managed by a data management platform, and wherein the virtual machine agent is configured to configure the source data storage environment to capture snapshots and archive the snapshots to the target data storage environment;
perform, by the virtual machine agent deployed on the source data storage environment, a backup of data from the source data storage environment to the target data storage environment;
and
output the backup of the data from the source data storage environment to the target data storage environment.

4 more elements

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for data management, the code comprising instructions executable by one or more processors to:

receive, at a source data storage environment comprising a first set of computing resources, a virtual machine agent that comprises software code operable to facilitate a backup service between the source data storage environment and a target data storage environment, wherein the target data storage environment comprises a second set of computing resources managed by a data management platform, and wherein the virtual machine agent is configured to configure the source data storage environment to capture snapshots and archive the snapshots to the target data storage environment;
perform, by the virtual machine agent deployed on the source data storage environment, a backup of data from the source data storage environment to the target data storage environment;
and
output the backup of the data from the source data storage environment to the target data storage environment.
