Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention allow a data segment stored in a compressed format to be directly staged into a cache allowing access to the data segment. In operation, a request to access a data segment is received. In response, whether the data segment is stored in a compressed format is determined. If the data segment is stored in the compressed format, the data segment is staged directly into a cache.
