Abstract
In one example, a method includes accessing a manifest that includes a listing of available versions of a dataset, selecting a dataset from the manifest, mounting the selected dataset, running an application that is associated with the dataset, requesting a specific subset of data of the mounted dataset, receiving the requested subset of data, performing a file system operation involving a change to the subset of data, and backing up the change to the subset of data.
