Abstract

A system for providing data protection services for user data associated with calendar groups generated by an application includes persistent storage for storing user data backups and a manager. The manager is programmed to identify a backup generation event for the user data associated with a calendar group based on a protection policy, obtain user data associated with the backup generation event from the application in response to identifying the backup generation event, select a calendar of calendars included in the user data, obtain user metadata associated with the calendar, generate calendar group information associated with the calendar using the user data and the user metadata, generate a user data backup using the user data, the calendar group information, and the user metadata, in which the user data backup comprises backup data and backup metadata.
