Abstract
A method for performing a backup operation includes obtaining a restoration request, and in response to the restoration request: identifying a first set of backups, wherein each backup in the first set of backups is associated with requested data, mounting the first set of backups from the backup storage system, performing data mining on the first set of backups to obtain a hierarchical structure, providing a set of options to a client based on the hierarchical structure, obtaining a selection from the client, wherein the selection is a portion of the set of options, obtaining selected content based on the selection, wherein the selected content is in a source format, converting the selected content from a source format to a target format to obtain target formatted user-specified content, and initiating a transfer of the target-formatted user-specified content to a cloud-based service.
