Abstract
Systems, apparatus, and methods for any point in time replication to the cloud. Data is replicated by replicating data to a remote storage or a data bucket in the cloud. At the same time, a metadata stream is generated and stored. The metadata stream establishes a relationship between the data and offsets of the data in the production volume. This allows continuous replication without having to maintain a replica volume. The replica volume can be generated during a rehydration operation that uses the metadata stream to construct the production volume from the cloud data.
