Abstract

A method is used in managing data compression in storage systems. A request to compress particular data stored within a memory space is received. An activity level for the particular data is determined. Compression is enabled for data determined to have an activity level below a predetermined threshold and compression is disabled for data determined to have an activity level above the predetermined threshold.
