Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure relates to capturing snapshots of key management data and storing the snapshots for efficient re-creation of the key management data in the event of an outage at one or more nodes. A snapshot orchestrator can request snapshot instances from each of the series of nodes across one or more regions in a cloud infrastructure service. Each snapshot instance can provide a plurality of modifications to a plurality of client keys maintained by each of the series of nodes. The snapshot orchestrator can obtain the snapshot instances and corresponding metadata and verify the snapshot instances received from the series of nodes. The snapshot orchestrator can store the verified snapshot instance and corresponding metadata at a storage node. This can allow for subsequent retrieval of the snapshot instance and recreating the log record and modifications to the plurality of keys at any of the series of nodes.
