1. A computer-implementable method for backing up a source cluster of a container-based application to a target cluster using an intermediate store comprising:
registering the target cluster;
identifying the container-based application;
collecting configuration and data of the container-based application;
writing the configuration and data of the container-based application to the intermediate store;
writing a command identifying the target cluster to the intermediate store;
reading the command identifying the target cluster from the intermediate store; and
performing a restore to the target cluster of the container-based application if the command identifying the target cluster matches identifier of the target cluster.
