Abstract

Methods, computer program products, computer systems, and the like are disclosed that provide for scalable deduplication in an efficient and effective manner. For example, such methods, computer program products, and computer systems can include receiving a data object at an assigned node, determining whether the data object includes a sub-data object, and processing the sub-data object. The assigned node is a node of a plurality of nodes of a cluster, where the data object includes a data segment, and a signature. The signature is generated based, at least in part, on data of the data segment. The processing includes sending the sub-data object to a remote node. The remote node is another node of the plurality of nodes of the cluster.
