A backup storage includes a persistent storage and a backup manager. The persistent storage stores backups of entities and a global application data map. The backup manager obtains a restoration request for restoration of an application hosted by an entity of the entities; makes a determination to accelerate the restoration based, at least in part, on the application; in response to the determination: identifies a virtual disk level backup of the entity that is associated with the application using the global application data map; obtains the virtual disk level backup from the backups of the entities; and restores the application using the virtual disk level backup. 一种备份存储装置包括永久性存储装置和备份管理器。永久性存储装置存储实体的备份和全局应用程序数据映射。备份管理器获取用于恢复由实体中的某一实体托管的应用程序的恢复请求；至少部分基于该应用程序确定加速恢复；响应于该确定：使用全局应用程序数据映射来识别与该应用程序相关联的实体的虚拟磁盘级备份；从实体的备份中获取虚拟磁盘级备份；以及使用虚拟磁盘级备份恢复应用程序。
