Abstract
Certain embodiments described herein relate to an improved information management system that can perform provider-specific data protection methods for cloud-stored data. In one embodiment, the information management system accesses a pod specification that indicates information usable to execute a containerized application on behalf of a user, and determines the cloud provider system configured to provide one or more computing resources for execution the containerized application. Using a provider-specific interface that is specific to the determined cloud provider system, the information management system creates a snapshot of a cloud storage volume associated with the containerized application and accesses the data inside the snapshot. The accessed data is stored onto a secondary storage device, and the snapshot is removed from the cloud provider system, thereby providing an efficient backup solution for the data used for executing the containerized application on the container orchestrator system.
