Claim 15:
16. A method comprising:
obtaining a set of pending data changes of an ephemeral storage system, wherein the data changes indicate changes to a state of the ephemeral storage system from a previous state;
in response to the set of pending data changes satisfying a threshold metric, updating a state of the cloud-based storage system to reflect the changes to the state of the ephemeral storage system indicated by the set of pending data changes;
detecting an event indicating that a cloud-based snapshot is to be generated; and
in response to detecting the event:
compiling a first set of pending data changes that indicates changes to the state of the ephemeral storage system from a previous state of the ephemeral storage system to a state at a time indicated by the event;
updating a state of the cloud-based storage system to reflect the change to the state of the ephemeral storage system indicated by the first set of pending data changes;
generating a snapshot of the cloud-based storage system; and
storing the snapshot of the cloud-based storage system in a cloud snapshot storage.
