Abstract
In one set of embodiments, a computer system can create a snapshot of a data set, where the snapshot includes a plurality of data blocks of the data set. The computer system can upload the snapshot to a cloud object storage platform of a cloud infrastructure, where the snapshot is uploaded as a plurality of log segments conforming to an object format of the cloud object storage platform, and where each log segment includes one or more data blocks in the plurality of data blocks, and a set of metadata comprising, for each of the one or more data blocks, an identifier of the data set, an identifier of the snapshot, and a logical block address (LBA) of the data block. The computer system can then communicate the set of metadata to a server component running in a cloud compute and block storage platform of the cloud infrastructure.
