Abstract:
A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes creating, at a block storage system separate from a host system, a structural representation of image layer data utilized at the host system, mapping the structural representation created at the block storage system to the image layer data utilized at the host system, and performing one or more operations on the image layer data, utilizing the structural representation created at the block storage system.

Claim (Index 9):
The computer-implemented method of  claim 1 , wherein the image layer data includes the image, the image including an executable software package that includes a description of runtime environment details, and creating the structural representation of the image layer data further includes:\n creating, at the block storage system, a snapshot of the storage snapshot, and creating, at the block storage system, metadata that describes the image layer data; wherein mapping the structural representation created at the block storage system to the image layer data utilized at the host system includes:\n implementing a pointer from the storage volume to an associated base device implemented at the host system, \n implementing a pointer from the storage snapshot to an associated image implemented at the host system, and \n implementing a pointer from the snapshot of the storage snapshot to a container implemented at the host system; \n wherein performing the one or more operations are performed on the image layer data, utilizing the structural representation created at the block storage system, includes:\n duplicating the storage volume within the block storage system, and mapping the duplicate storage volume to another different base device implemented at another different host system, and \n duplicating the storage snapshot within the block storage system, and mapping the duplicate storage snapshot to another different image implemented at the other different host system.
