Abstract
Optimized remoting cloning is disclosed, including: receiving data from a source storage system associated with an ongoing replication process of a snapshot; and prior to the completion of the replication process of the snapshot, generating a set of metadata associated with a clone of the snapshot, wherein at least a portion of data comprising the snapshot that has been received at the destination storage system can be read using the clone while the replication process of the snapshot is ongoing.
