Methods and systems for reducing the amount of time to restore a database or other application by dynamically generating and storing synthetic snapshots are described. When backing up a database, an integrated data management and storage system may acquire snapshots of the database at a snapshot frequency and acquire database transaction logs at a frequency that is greater than the snapshot frequency. In response to detecting that the database is unable to provide a database snapshot, the integrated data management and storage system may generate a synthetic snapshot of the database by instantiating a compatible version of the database locally, acquiring a previously stored snapshot of the database, applying data changes from one or more database transaction logs to the previously stored snapshot to generate the synthetic snapshot, and storing the synthetic snapshot of the database within the integrated data management and storage system.

Database recovery time objective optimization with synthetic snapshots

A computer-implemented method at a data management system comprises: receiving, at a storage appliance from a server hosting a virtual machine, a write made to the virtual machine; computing, at the storage appliance, a fingerprint of the transmitted write; comparing, at the storage appliance, the computed fingerprint to malware fingerprints in a malware catalog; repeating the computing and comparing; and disabling the virtual machine if a number of matches from the comparing breaches a predetermined threshold over a predetermined amount of time.

Malware protection for virtual machines

Methods and systems for recovering databases and other applications with reduced downtime using recoverable chains are described. When protecting or backing up a database, an integrated data management and storage system may capture snapshots of the database at a snapshot frequency (e.g., at 15 minute intervals) and acquire database transaction logs that include data changes of the database at a frequency that is greater than the snapshot frequency. The integrated data management and storage system may generate a particular point in time version of the database by identifying a recoverable chain that comprises a combination of one or more database snapshots including the snapshot closest to the recovery point and one or more database transaction logs.
