Abstract
Deduplication of data on a set of non-volatile memory by performing the following operations: receiving a first dataset; determining whether the first dataset is already present in data written to a first set of non-volatile memory; and on condition that the first dataset is determined to have already been present in the data written to the first set of non-volatile memory, providing a linking mechanism to associate the received first dataset with the already present data written to the first set of non-volatile memory.
