Application: Holistically protecting serverless applications based on detecting in-cloud deployments (Patent ID: US20230409405A1)

The patent filed by CommVault Systems Inc. describes a holistic approach to protecting serverless applications in various cloud and non-cloud data center computing environments. The system deploys a discovery tracker in a customer's cloud service account to identify and track applications, ensuring timely backup of active applications and proper disposal of copies of applications no longer deployed. The system creates an "application entity" referencing various assets and orchestrates storage management operations to generate point-in-time copies of applications.

The system, as outlined in the claims, involves deploying a discovery tracker in a cloud service account to detect workloads and associated assets, transmitting information to a storage manager component, creating application entities, and managing storage operations to generate secondary copies of assets. It further includes updating workload inventories, identifying secondary copies, and performing storage management operations based on preferences. The system coordinates secondary copies to form point-in-time copies, with data agents generating copies of assets and moving them to different data storage resources. The system operates outside the cloud service account and cloud computing environment, ensuring efficient and comprehensive protection of applications and assets in various computing environments.
