The present invention provides an exemplary system and method for event driven recovery management. One or more data blocks that are generated from a computing device are continually copied. At least one event marker is associated with the copies of the one or more data blocks. Access to the copies of the one or more data blocks according to the at least one event marker is allowed in order to provide event driven recovery.

Systems and methods for event driven recovery management

A system and method is provided for optimizing restoration of stored data. A request for data to be restored to any point in time is received. A current state of the data is determined. One or more data blocks required to modify the data from the current state to the any point in time requested are identified. The data at the any point in time is restored within a storage medium using the identified one or more data blocks.

Systems and methods for optimizing restoration of stored data

A system and method is provided for organizing and mapping data. In exemplary embodiments, a copy of at least one first data block created from a first computing device is generated. A copy of one or more second data blocks created from one or more second computing devices utilizing the copy of the at least one first data block is also generated. The copy of the at least one first data block is related to the copy of the one or more second data blocks in a branching data structure. The copy of the at least one first data block and the copy of the one or more second data blocks is mapped to a storage medium via an index associated with the branching data structure.

Systems and methods for organizing and mapping data

The present invention provides an exemplary system and method for storing information for later recovery. One or more first memory addresses within a recovery storage are assigned to one or more data blocks. One or more second memory addresses within a primary storage associated with the one or more data blocks and the one or more first memory addresses are sent to the recovery server. The one or more data blocks are copied to the one or more first memory addresses within the recovery storage.
