Abstract
Backup data is processed by obtaining a set of metadata associated with backup data. A locality-sensitive hash key is generated for the backup data based at least in part on the set of metadata. The backup data is assigned to one of a plurality of deduplication nodes based at least in part on the locality-sensitive hash key.
