System and method for restoring data from a remote repository

摘要

A method includes receiving a request to restore a memory of a client and determining a selected full session from a plurality of full sessions, each full session comprising a respective copy of data received from the memory of the client and a respective backup time stamp. The selected full session includes a most recent full backup having a respective backup time stamp prior to a selected restore time. The method further includes copying the selected full session to a restore session and determining a selected incremental session from a plurality of incremental sessions. Each incremental session includes a respective incremental backup time stamp, and respective changes to the data received from the memory of the client. The method further includes modifying the restore session in a cloud computing environment based on the selected incremental session, and transmitting the modified restore session across a network to the client.

1. A method for restoring data, comprising:
receiving a request to restore a memory of a client; determining a selected full session from a plurality of full sessions, each full session comprising a respective copy of data received from the memory of the client and a respective backup time stamp; wherein the selected full session comprises a most recent full backup having a respective backup time stamp prior to a selected restore time; copying the selected full session to a restore session; determining a selected incremental session from a plurality of incremental sessions, each incremental session comprising:
a respective incremental backup time stamp;respective changes to the data received from the memory of the client; anda plurality of integrated incremental sessions, the integrated incremental sessions comprising additional changes to the data received from the memory of the client, the additional changes occurring after the respective time stamp associated with the most recent full backup, and before the most recent incremental backup time stamp; wherein the selected incremental session comprises a most recent incremental backup time stamp prior to the restore time; modifying the restore session in a cloud computing environment based on the selected incremental session; and transmitting the modified restore session across a network to the client.
