Abstract
A method for providing backup to a networked virtualization environment for storage management by a remote storage environment having a block storage device and an object storage device, includes deploying a controller virtual machine at the remote storage environment, wherein the controller virtual machine provides a block storage device interface, receiving, at the controller virtual machine, a write request for data in a block-based format, translating the data from the block-based format to an object-based format, writing the data in the object-based format to the object storage device, and updating metadata corresponding to the write request in the block storage device.
