Embodiment Construction

[0026]Embodiments can provide a backup, search and restoration service enabling a user to restore one or more data items on a data system. The data system can be configured to provide services such as messaging (email, calendar, contact management), online collaboration, CRM, CSP and online storage. Some examples of these data systems can include, for example, Office 365 Exchange, Office 365 SharePoint, Office 365 Project, OneDrive, Box, Microsoft Dynamics CRM, and Salesforce. Embodiments can enable a user to search and restore one or more data items on the data system. A user interface can be provided and implemented on a computer associated with the user. The interface can enable the user to initiate a search for one or more data items matching a search criteria specified by the user through the interface. A search can be then performed by comparing metadata information regarding individual data items with the search criteria. One or more data items matching the search criteria ca...

Abstract

A backup, search, and restore service is provided. The service can be achieved through a backup system, and a search and restore server. A user can be enabled to initiate a search request for one or more data items. A search can be performed by the search and restore server using metadata for the data items backed up by the backup system to return the one or more data items. The metadata for the data items can be generated by the backup system when data items are backed up by the backup system. The backup system may back up the data items on an incremental basis. The user can be enabled to select a data item in the one or more data items for restoration on the data system. Header information of the selected data item can be obtained from the data system to determine whether the restoration is necessary.
