Abstract: A data management and storage (DMS) cluster of peer DMS nodes manages migration of an application between a primary compute infrastructure and a secondary compute infrastructure. The secondary compute infrastructure may be a failover environment for the primary compute infrastructure. Primary snapshots of virtual machines of the application in the primary compute infrastructure are generated, and provided to the secondary compute infrastructure. During a failover, the primary snapshots are deployed in the secondary compute infrastructure as virtual machines. Secondary snapshots of the virtual machines are generated, where the secondary snapshots are incremental snapshots of the primary snapshots. In failback, the secondary snapshots are provided to the primary compute infrastructure, where they are combined with the primary snapshots into construct a current state of the application, and the application is deployed in the current state by deploying virtual machines on the primary compute infrastructure.

Abstract: A data management and storage (DMS) cluster of peer DMS nodes manages data of an application distributed across a set of machines of a compute infrastructure. A DMS node associates a set of machines with the application, and generates data fetch jobs for the set of machines for execution by multiple peer DMS nodes. The DMS node determining whether each of the data fetch jobs for the set of machines is ready for execution by the peer DMS nodes. In response to determining that each of the data fetch jobs is ready for execution, the peer DMS nodes execute the data fetch jobs to generate snapshots of the set of machines. The snapshots may be full or incremental snapshots, and collectively form a snapshot of the application.

Abstract: An instance of an application hierarchy can be stored on a client computer to facilitate enforcement of software licensing by a software license component of a software protection system. The application hierarchy is a tree structure (e.g., unordered) that includes a top node, one or more product offering group(s), and, one or more selling unit(s). A computer-implemented software protection system can facilitate enforcement of software licensing on a client computer. The software protection system includes a software license component that can store and enforce software licensing rule(s). The software license component can further manipulate state data of an instance of the application hierarchy stored in a licensing data store via application program interface(s) (APIs). State data and/or property(ies) of a particular node of the instance of the application hierarchy can be accessed through the API via an assigned identifier.
