Abstract

Storage of data segments is disclosed. For each segment, a similar segment to the segment is identified, wherein the similar segment is already managed by a cluster node. In the event the similar segment is identified, a reference to the similar segment and a delta between the similar segment and the segment are caused to be stored instead of the segment.
