Abstract
A snapshot object or other type of object may be stored in a first storage system and may be accelerated in another storage system, wherein an accelerated snapshot or other type of object can be used to populate volumes in the other storage system with data more rapidly than a non-accelerated snapshot or other type of object. The accelerated snapshot or other object may be implemented using an intermediate volume implemented in the other storage system that is populated with data from the snapshot object or the other object stored in the first storage system.
