  • TECHNIQUES FOR SCALABLE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM BACKUPS
    Publication number: 20240045771
    Abstract: Techniques discussed herein manage backups of a service cell (SC). Each SC may include a data plane that is isolated from other SCs and comprises a distributed computing cluster (a cluster). A manifest that specifies one or more backup policies may be used to generate a full backup or a partial backup of a data set stored by the cluster. In accordance with the manifest, a signal may be sent to nodes of the cluster. In response, the nodes may transmit locally-stored data (e.g., data segments) to specified locations at a remote storage. The system may maintain a mapping of which segments correspond to data that was stored in the cluster at a time corresponding to a full or partial backup.
