Abstract

A system for providing data protection services for user data generated by an application includes persistent storage that includes an archive storage and a backup storage. The system also includes a manager. The manager is programmed to generate data chunks using user data, generate backup object metadata associated with the data chunks; obtain previously generated backup object metadata associated with the user data using an archive value, make a first determination that at least one data chunk of the data chunks is to be archived using the backup object metadata and the previously generated backup object metadata, and, in response to the first determination: store the at least one data chunk in the archive storage as a portion of a user data backup, and store remaining data chunks of the data chunks in the backup storage as the remaining portion of the user data backup.
