A method and system for implementing a topological view and insights of organization information technology (IT) environments based on bare-metal recovery and/or system-state recovery data and metadata. Often, one or many IT environment(s), affiliated with an organization, include various network resources, as well active directory service(s) for organizing, locating, and managing said network resources. Active directory service(s) may further gather and provide information pertinent to modeling a topological view of said network resources throughout the organization. Leveraging said information gleaned from any active directory service(s), as well as backup operation metadata generated during or following backup operations targeting workloads and their respective data, which support bare-metal and/or system-state recoveries, embodiments disclosed herein propose the construction of an organization metadata tree. Once rendered, the organization metadata tree may be leveraged itself to process queries concerning, for example, file-system object generation, distribution, and/or usage respective to any tier or granularity of the organization.
