Abstract: Usage of a source volume may be monitored to accumulate usage statistics for source extents of the source volume. The source volume may be backed up to a backup volume having backup extents that are copies of the source extents. When the backup volume is restored to a restore volume, priority for copying the backup extents to the restore volume may be based on the usage statistics. Backup extents having usage statistics that indicate higher usage with respect to the source volume may be restored to the restore volume with higher priority than backup extents having usage statistics that indicate lower usage with respect to the source volume.

Abstract: A container storage system that provides storage services to a container system provides data resiliency using storage pools based on: detecting an interruption to storage services associated with a first storage pool that includes a first plurality of storage resources on which a first set of replicas of a dataset is distributed; selecting, in response to the interruption, a second storage pool that includes a second plurality of storage resources; and generating, based on one or more replicas within the first set of replicas, a second set of replicas of the dataset distributed among the second plurality of storage resources in the second storage pool.
