Data recovery systems and methods utilize object-based storage for providing a data protection and recovery methodology with low recovery point objectives, and for enabling both full recovery and point-in-time based recovery. Data generated at a protected site (e.g., via one or more virtual machines) is intercepted during write procedures to primary storage. The intercepted data is replicated via a replication log, provided as data objects, and transmitted to an object based storage system. During recovery, data objects may be retrieved through point-in-time based recovery directly by the systems of the protected site, and/or data objects may be provided via full recovery, for example, within a runtime environment of a recovery site, with minimal data loss and operation interruption by rehydrating data objects within the runtime environment via low-latency data transfer and rehydration systems.
