Abstract
Methods and systems for backing up and restoring data on a worker node are described. According to some embodiments, the method includes using a job controller to spin up one or more backup jobs in the worker node. The method further includes utilizing, by the backup jobs, mount propagation to access one or more persistent volumes of a pod on the worker node. The method further includes performing, by the backup jobs, backup tasks on the persistent volumes. The method further includes applying a set of rules used by a scheduler to determine a location of the pod in order to ensure the backup jobs are scheduled on a same worker node. The method further includes storing, by the backup jobs, backup artifacts generated by the backup tasks, wherein the backup artifacts include deduplicated data.
