Abstract
Providing continuous replication for container management system that allows configuration of a volume as a replicated network block device (NBD) volume to an actual backend volume. The system configures a pod with an NBD container running and with the actual backend volume device attached. An NBD server intercepts all I/O data arriving to the NBD volume and a filter driver intercepts writes to the NBD volume and writes them to the actual backend volume. The intercepted I/O data is also sent to a remote replication server container with persistent and journal volumes. The data is applied to the replication volume using the journal as a recover point for recovery for any point in time.
