Abstract
Techniques for managing data compression in a data protection system are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for managing data compression comprising receiving a request for a data operation, analyzing a data management policy associated with the request, identifying a compression level associated with one or more portions of data in the data operation based at least in part on the data management policy, and identifying a compression algorithm to be used for one or more portions of data in the data operation.
