Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, a device and a computer program product for managing backup data. The method comprises receiving a first request from a user for managing backup data on a first virtual machine management platform. The method further comprises sending a second request comprising a user identifier and a platform identifier to a backup server. The method further comprises receiving, from the backup server, a first virtual machine identifier of the first virtual machine used by the user on the second virtual machine management platform and backup records corresponding to the first virtual machine identifier. The method further comprises determining, based on the first virtual machine identifier, whether a second virtual machine matched with the first virtual machine is present in the first virtual machine management platform. The method further comprises, in response to the second virtual machine being present, storing the backup records in association with a second virtual machine identifier related to the second virtual machine. With the above method, it is possible to implement quick migration of backup data across platforms thereby providing a seamless, reliable and convenient data protection solution for the user.
