A cloud manager restores a backup of a distributed environment by comparing a stack of a current distributed environment to a backup stack of the backup of the distributed environment. The cloud manager identifies a difference between a first number of nodes in the first set of nodes specified in the first stack and a second number of nodes in the second set of nodes specified in the second stack. The cloud manager restores the backup of the distributed environment by modifying a number of nodes in the current distributed environment based on the identified difference between the first number of nodes and the number of nodes in the second stack.

Backup and restore of distributed environments

Techniques for cloning a computing environment while modifying components of the computing environment are disclosed. A cloning request specifies a modification to a source environment. A cloning engine determines one or more additional non-requested modifications to be made in a destination environment necessitated by the requested modification. A modified destination specification is generated including the requested modification and the one or more additional non-requested modifications. A destination stack is generated, and the destination environment is provisioned according to the destination stack.
