Abstract

Directly writing snapshot data for a volume on a storage system to an external storage includes receiving a write of new data to a portion of the storage system, forming encapsulated data by encapsulating either the new data or data at the portion of the storage system in a format that is native to the storage system, and directly writing the encapsulated data to the external storage. The external storage may be cloud storage or may be a tape emulation unit. The data at the portion of the storage system may be encapsulated prior to writing the new data to the storage system. The new data may be encapsulated. Prior to receiving a write of the new data, a full backup may be performed from the storage system to the external storage. The encapsulated data may provide an incremental backup for the full backup.
