A first computing device is provided for rolling back a computing environment. The computing device includes processors configured to acquire a stream containing entries including snapshot entries, memory entries, and input/output entries wherein each entry includes information and is associated with a timestamp. The processors are further configured to receive a snapshot entry associated with a first timestamp, revert to a memory state using information provided in at least one memory entry associated with a timestamp after the first timestamp, and re-execute a previously executed process, wherein the re-execution of the process is started using the first timestamp, information from the received snapshot entry, and information for input/output operations corresponding to the input/output entries associated with timestamps after the first timestamp.
