Data recovery technique for recovering data from an object storage service

摘要

A system and method for recovering data backed up to an object store are provided. In some embodiments, the method includes identifying an address space of a data set to be recovered. A set of data objects stored by an object-based system is identified that corresponds to the address space and a selected recovery point. The identified set of data objects is retrieved, and data contained in the retrieved set of data objects is stored to at least one storage device at a block address determined by the retrieved set of data objects to recreate the address space. In some embodiments, the set of data objects is retrieved by providing an HTTP request and receiving the set of data objects as an HTTP response. In some embodiments, the set of data objects are retrieved based on the data objects being the target of a data transaction.
