Abstract: It is determined that an expiration date for an object associated with a first archive that includes a chunk object that includes a plurality of data chunks has expired. The first archive is stored in a first cloud performance storage class according to an archive tiering policy. It is determined that the archive tiering policy indicates migrating the plurality of data chunks included in the chunk object from the first cloud performance storage class to a second cloud performance storage class. In response to determining that the archive tiering policy indicates migrating the plurality of data chunks included in the chunk object from the first cloud performance storage class to the second cloud performance storage class, the plurality of data chunks included in the chunk object are migrated from the first cloud performance storage class to the second cloud performance storage class.

Abstract: A first archive of a first snapshot of a source storage is caused to be stored to a remote storage. At least a portion of content of the first archive is stored in data chunks stored in a first chunk object of the remote storage and the first archive is associated with a first data policy. A second archive of a second snapshot of the source storage is caused to be stored to the remote storage. At least a portion of content of the second archive is referenced from data chunks stored in the first chunk object and the second archive is associated with a second data policy. Policy compliance of the chunk object storing data chunks referenced by the first archive and the second archive that are different is automatically managed based on the first data policy and the second data policy that are different.

Abstract: An indication to store to a remote storage a new archive of a snapshot of a source storage is received. At least one shared data chunk of the new archive is determined to be already stored in an existing chunk object of the remote storage storing data chunks of a previous archive. One or more evaluation metrics for the existing chunk object are determined based at least in part on a retention period associated with one or more individual chunks stored in the chunk object and a data lock period associated with the entire existing chunk object. It is determined based on the one or more evaluation metrics whether to reference the at least one shared data chunk of the new archive from the existing chunk object or store the at least one shared data chunk in a new chunk object of the remote storage.
