A data storage infrastructure may establish a partition that includes a first data center and a second data center that is geographically separated from the first data center. The data storage infrastructure may replicate a full snapshot and one or more incremental snapshots of a virtual machine from a first data management platform to a second data management platform, where the virtual machine is migrated from a first host of the first host group to a second host of the second host group upon a failover event occurring at the first data center. The data storage infrastructure may then capture an incremental snapshot of the virtual machine based on linking a first instance of the virtual machine that was replicated from the first data management platform and a second instance of the virtual machine that is managed by the second data management platform.
