A computer-implemented method of continuous restore for containerized applications includes initiating a continuous restore process for a containerized application having an application template and application data, where the containerized application executes on a first cluster. A backup plan for the containerized application is generated. A persistent volume containing the application data in the first cluster is identified and some of the application data is moved from the persistent volume to a backup target based on the backup plan schedule. The backup plan is received at a data synch process executing on a second cluster. A persistent volume is created on the second cluster. Some of the application data is moved from the backup target to the created persistent volume on the second cluster based on the backup plan schedule. The containerized application is recovered at the second cluster based on some of the application data moved to the persistent volume on the second cluster by the data synch process such that the recovered containerized application is operational at the most recent backup point-of-time of the backup plan schedule.
