A system identifies a first partition and another partition in a full backup created at a first time for a dataset. The system identifies a revision of the first partition in a first incremental backup created at a second time for the dataset, and links the first incremental backup to the full backup based on the first partition and the revision of the first partition. The system identifies a revision of the other partition in another incremental backup created at a third time for the dataset, and links the other incremental backup to the full backup based on the other partition and the revision of the other partition. The system restores the other partition in the dataset based on the link from the other incremental backup to the full backup, in response to receiving a request to restore the other partition in the dataset.

Linking backup files based on data partitions

Data management using an open standard file system interface to a storage gateway is described. A system uses an open standard file system interface to instruct a storage gateway to create a directory, create a file for the directory, write information to the file, and store, based on the information written to the file, data to storage associated with the storage gateway.
