Abstract
A system and a method for data transformation for cloud-based archiving and backup are disclosed. The system includes an original disk storage, an object storage and a Data Transformation and Virtualization Module (DTVM). The DTVM can transform an original data in the original disk storage into an archiving data which has objects, pointers, and a metadata including an environmental information, and store the archiving data to the object storage by a storing means. Thus, in addition to restoring of the archiving data which is available, with the drivers for booting added to objects, pointers, and a metadata, recovery of the original disk storage with booting function can be available.
