In accordance with some aspects of the present disclosure, a non-transitory computer readable medium is disclosed. In some embodiments, the non-transitory computer readable medium includes instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to receive, from a workload hosted on a host of a cluster, first I/O traffic programmed according to a first I/O traffic protocol supported by a cluster-wide storage fabric exposed to the workload as being hosted on the same host. In some embodiments, the workload is recovered by a hypervisor hosted on the same host. In some embodiments, the non-transitory computer readable medium includes the instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to adapt the first I/O traffic to generate second I/O traffic programmed according to a second I/O traffic protocol supported by a repository external to the storage fabric and forward the second I/O traffic to the repository.
