Abstract

A technique includes intercepting, by a computer, an input/output (I/O) request that is directed to a file; and in response to the interception of the I/O request, accessing, by the computer, file system attributes that are associated with the file and are stored separately from the file. The technique includes classifying, by the computer, the I/O request based on the file system attributes; and performing, by the computer, a data transformation that is associated with the file based on the classification.
