Performance Centric Primary Storage Deduplication Systems Exploiting Caching and Block Similarity

Data deduplication is a concept of physically storing a single instance of data by eliminating redundant copies to save the storage space by matching strong data hashes (e.g., fingerprints). The adoption of deduplication for primary storage has been hampered because of its complexities, such as random-access patterns to data and the need for quicker request response time. Most of the solutions des...
