Abstract

A data management and storage (DMS) cluster of peer DMS nodes manages data of an application distributed across a set of machines of a compute infrastructure. A DMS node associates a set of machines with the application, and generates data fetch jobs for the set of machines for execution by multiple peer DMS nodes. The DMS node determining whether each of the data fetch jobs for the set of machines is ready for execution by the peer DMS nodes. In response to determining that each of the data fetch jobs is ready for execution, the peer DMS nodes execute the data fetch jobs to generate snapshots of the set of machines. The snapshots may be full or incremental snapshots, and collectively form a snapshot of the application.
