Abstract
A backup agent for generating backups includes a persistent storage and a backup manager. The persistent storage stores backup/restoration policies. The backup manager obtains production host computing resource characteristics associated with production hosts; performs a computing resource analysis of the production host computing resource characteristics to obtain resource profiles for each of the production hosts; performs an availability analysis of the obtained resource profiles to determine an application-level computing resources distribution for generating the backups; coordinates generating the backups using the application-level computing resource distribution and the backup/restoration policies to obtain the backups; and stores the obtained backups in backup storage.
