The present disclosure relates to a method, apparatus and computer program product for managing service containers. According to example implementations of the present disclosure, there is provided a method for managing a group of service containers. In the method, in response to receiving a backup demand on a group of to-be-generated service containers, a configuration file for generating the group of service containers is built on the basis of the backup demand, the configuration file comprising scripts for installing backup agencies that perform backup operations to the group of service containers. An image file for initializing the group of service containers is loaded to at least one node in a service container management system so as to create a group of basic running environments. The configuration file is deployed to the group of basic running environments to generate the group of service containers, so that a corresponding backup agency comprised in a corresponding service container in the group of generated service containers performs the backup operation to the group of generated service containers. Further, there is provided an apparatus and computer program product for managing a group of service containers.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, a system and a computer readable storage medium for data backup and restoration in a cluster system. The method comprises obtaining performance data of the nodes, the performance data being collected periodically by the backup and restore proxy modules; predicting workloads of the nodes based on the performance data; selecting, based on the predicted workloads, a backup node from the nodes, to take over a data backup and restore task from a working node which is currently in charge of the data backup and restore task.
