Abstract
Techniques are disclosed relating to providing protection groups and rapid determination of expired objects and associated storage resources in a cloud-based backup storage context. In various embodiments, the disclosed techniques include generating, by a computing system, incremental backup data for a backup based on protection group information, including a set of cloud-based key-value data store buckets, filter information, and policy information. Disclosed techniques also include rapid determination of expired objects and associated storage resources. Disclosed techniques may advantageously provide a centralized view across buckets, accounts, and regions and allow users to target specific subsets of their data stores for backup, which may improve performance and reduce backup storage costs, relative to traditional techniques.
