Abstract

A method, article of manufacture, and apparatus for locating data inside a deduplicated storage system is discussed. An index on a solid state device may contain a finger print to container identifier mapping. The container identifier may identify a logical container storing data related to the fingerprint. This data may therefore be located using the index given the fingerprint.
