Abstract: A data management system (DMS) may support intelligent snapshot protection techniques. For example, the DMS may backup a computing system and facilitate that capture and storage of snapshots of the computing system. The DMS may identify a deletion event associated with one or more of the snapshots, the deletion event being associated with the one or more snapshots being deleted at a first time. The DMS may determine that deletion event is anomalous and retain the one or more snapshots beyond the first time. For example, the DMS may determine that one or more parameters associated with the deletion event are indicative of the deletion event being anomalous. In response, the DMS may retain the one or more snapshots for a retention period beyond the first time.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing, storing, and serving data within a virtualized environment are described. In some embodiments, a data management system may manage the extraction and storage of virtual machine snapshots, provide near instantaneous restoration of a virtual machine or one or more files located on the virtual machine, and enable secondary workloads to directly use the data management system as a primary storage target to read or modify past versions of data. The data management system may allow a virtual machine snapshot of a virtual machine stored within the system to be directly mounted to enable substantially instantaneous virtual machine recovery of the virtual machine.

Abstract: Methods and systems for backing up and restoring sets of electronic files using sets of pseudo-virtual disks are described. The sets of electronic files may be sourced from or be stored using one or more different data sources including one or more real machines and/or one or more virtual machines. A first snapshot of the sets of electronic files may be aggregated from the different data sources and stored using a first pseudo-virtual disk. A second snapshot of the sets of electronic files may be aggregated from the different data sources subsequent to the generation of the first pseudo-virtual disk and stored using the first pseudo-virtual disk or a second pseudo-virtual disk different from the first pseudo-virtual disk.

Abstract: A data management and storage (DMS) cluster of peer DMS nodes manages data of a tenant of a multi-tenant compute infrastructure. The compute infrastructure includes an envoy connecting the DMS cluster to virtual machines of the tenant executing on the compute infrastructure. The envoy provides the DMS cluster with access to the virtual tenant network and the virtual machines of the tenant connected via the virtual tenant network for DMS services such as data fetch jobs to generate snapshots of the virtual machines. The envoy sends the snapshot from the virtual machine to a peer DMS node via the connection for storage within the DMS cluster. The envoy provides the DMS cluster with secure access to authorized tenants of the compute infrastructure while maintaining data isolation of tenants within the compute infrastructure.

Abstract: Techniques for preventing recovery of specific data elements based on a recovery prevention configuration defined by a user are disclosed. In some embodiments, a computer system performs operations comprising: receiving a recovery prevention configuration from a first computing device of a first user, the recovery prevention configuration comprising at least one recovery prevention parameter specified by the first user via one or more user interface elements displayed on the first computing device, the at least one recovery prevention parameter being configured to identify one or more backup data elements stored in a secondary storage system; storing the recovery prevention configuration in a database in association with the secondary storage system; and filtering out the one or more backup data elements stored in the secondary storage system from a data recovery process based on the at least one recovery prevention parameter of the stored recovery prevention configuration.
