Abstract
Dynamic memory allocation is provided using containers and overlay snaps. A first container is generated to receive a first data stream, and an associated overlay snap is generated to which the data of the first container is transmitted. In response to a storage capacity of the first container reaching a threshold, a second container is generated to receive a second data stream. A second overlay snap associated with the second container is generated, and data of the second container is transmitted to the second overlay snap.
