Abstract
A technique may include generating a snapshot from a proprietary format, generating a snapshot of a block-based backend storage system, where the snapshot of the block-based back in storage system references the snapshot from the proprietary format. APIs associated with the proprietary format may then be used to read out application data as blocks and to write those blocks to an independent logical unit.
