Snapshot Lifecycle Management Systems and Methods

摘要

Snapshot lifecycle management systems and methods are disclosed herein. An example method includes establishing a repository for a user, determining indices for the user, generating a snapshot lifecycle policy for the indices of the cluster. The snapshot lifecycle policy comprises snapshot gathering parameters that dictate when and how often snapshots of indices of the cluster are obtained, as well as retention parameters that control how long the snapshots are stored and when the snapshots are to be deleted. The method includes storing the snapshots for the indices of the cluster in the repository according to the snapshot gathering parameters, and managing retention of the snapshots stored in the repository according to the retention parameters.
