    Abstract: An illustrative cloud-based air-gapped data storage management (destination) system obtains authorized access to other (source) systems' backup copies, replicates those copies within the destination system, parses supplemental metadata included in the source backup copies, and integrates the replica copies into the destination system as though natively created there. Replica copies are integrated as backup copies without first restoring the source backup copies to a native data format. The source system lacks knowledge of or connectivity with the destination system, thus maintaining an “air gap” between the systems. The destination system preferably operates in a cloud computing environment. The destination system uses supplemental metadata from the replica copies to re-create or mimic the source's computing environment and to restore backed up data from the replica copies. The destination system also operates as an autonomous analytics engine, applying value-added services to backed up data pulled from source system(s).

    Abstract: Techniques manage tracking records in an application system which includes an active dump file and an inactive dump file. A set of tracking records indicating a state of the application system is received. The set of tracking records is added to the active dump file. A storage signal for storing the active dump file into a backup device associated with the application system is generated according to a determination that a size of the active dump file meets a predetermined size threshold and according to a determination that a state of the inactive dump file is a ready state. The ready state indicates that the inactive dump file is available for storing another set of tracking records to be received in the future. Accordingly, two dump files may alternately store tracking records, and copies of the dump files may be continuously stored into a backup device to improve reliability.

    Abstract: An improved system architecture for scaling deployments of data management-as-a-service (DMaaS) distributes “job manager” functionality so that a large-scale data storage management system may be deployed in a cloud computing environment as DMaaS without experiencing performance bottlenecks that slow down core data protection operations at scale. The disclosed solution creates an infrastructure where job manager features run on any number of distinct machines or compute resources that act as local job managers. In the illustrative DMaaS, any number of components that scale horizontally (“the distributed components”) carry job management responsibility for storage management operations such as backup jobs, auxiliary copy jobs, archive jobs, etc. These distributed components are configured to perform locally as job managers and to see each storage management job through from beginning to end without centralized control. These distributed components or local job managers also maintain, collect, and locally store job metadata.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media are disclosed for isolating and reporting a volume placement error for a request to place a volume on a storage platform. A volume placement service requests information from a database using an optimized database query to determine an optimal location to place a new volume. The database returns no results. The volume placement service deconstructs the optimized database query to extract a plurality of queries. The volume placement service iterates over the plurality queries, combining queries in each iteration, to determine a cause for the database to return no results. The volume placement service determines based on the results of each iterative database request a cause the database to return an empty result. The volume placement service provides an indication of the cause for returning an empty result.
