Abstract: A method for implementing native snapshot capabilities on non-native snapshots includes generating a virtual disk container having both native snapshot functionality and functionality of the non-native snapshot, including redo-log snapshot functionality. Redo-log parent disk chains may be preserved, along with subsequent native snapshot data, in virtual disk container objects. A virtual root node of a copy-on-write data structure of a virtual disk container object enables snapshotting and traversal between a redo-log disk chain and a native snapshot disk chain. Throughout backup and reversion operations, the virtual disk container object may be reparented as necessary, and a constant running point may be maintained for the virtual disk container object.

Abstract: Methods, computer-storage media, and graphical user interfaces are provided for identifying and presenting rich related sites for task-oriented search queries. Upon receipt of a search query input by a user, one or more query logs are analyzed to determine if the search query is a related to a task being performed by the user. If the query is determined to be a task-oriented search query, search results are identified, as is one or more Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) related to a particular search result. The related URL is presented to the user in association with the particular search result. Additional controls, e.g., search tools that facilitate querying of those URLs determined to be relevant to a particular search result, may also be provided to aid the user in performing the task at hand.
