SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DATA CHUNK DEDUPLICATION

A method includes receiving information about a plurality of data chunks and determining if one or more of a plurality of back-end nodes already stores more than a threshold amount of the plurality of data chunks where one of the plurality of back-end nodes is designated as a sticky node. The method...

Summary:A method includes receiving information about a plurality of data chunks and determining if one or more of a plurality of back-end nodes already stores more than a threshold amount of the plurality of data chunks where one of the plurality of back-end nodes is designated as a sticky node. The method further includes, responsive to determining that none of the plurality of back-end nodes already stores more than a threshold amount of the plurality of data chunks, deduplicating the plurality of data chunks against the back-end node designated as the sticky node. Finally, the method includes, responsive to an amount of data being processed, designating a different back-end node as the sticky node.
