Abstract
Systems and methods are provided to manage a replication service of a block storage volume to increase dependability and/or decrease data loss. Each snapshot of a block storage volume can include a point-in-time representation of the volume. Each snapshot may include multiple objects that correspond to one or more blocks of the volume. One or more objects of a snapshot may reference a parent snapshot instead of a block of the volume. Each object of a snapshot may be replicated a number of times based on the number of references by other snapshots. The number of replicas may be based on the number of snapshots referencing the object or the number of unique clients referencing the object. The replication service can manage the replicas of the object and increase or decrease the number of replicas as needed.
