Systems and methods for managing incremental data backups on an object store. A computing device receives first data representing a changed chunk of data in a revision of a data volume on a storage device, the changed chunk includes data having changes from previous data of a previous revision. The computing device creates a block of data representing a copy of the changed chunk on the object store, the object store also includes a previous revision block representing previous revision data. The computing device determines a previous index stored on the object store corresponding to the previous revision, which includes entries including at least one corresponding to the previous revision block. The computing device creates a copy of at least one previous index from the object store, and a revised index that updates the corresponding entry with updated entry data representing the change block.
