Abstract
Snapshot restoration based on a correlation of a snapshot namespace with a file system namespace is provided. A restore command is received, following which the correlation between the file system namespace of the file system with the snapshot namespace of a snapshot of the file system is performed. Further a file operation command is received to perform at least one of a read file operation and a lookup file operation, corresponding to at least one object associated with the file system namespace of the file system. Further, based on restoration data associated with the at least one object, a redirection operation is executed for at least one of the read file operation and the lookup file operation. The redirection operation routes the file operation command to at least one respective snapshot object associated with the snapshot namespace, corresponding to the at least one object.
