Abstract

Techniques and mechanisms described herein facilitate the transmission of a data stream to a networked storage system. According to various embodiments, a data stream may be parsed to identify one or more uncompressed data chunks for transmission to a networked storage system. Each uncompressed data chunk may be compressed to produce a respective compressed data chunk. Each compressed data chunk may be transmitted to the networked storage system via a network for storage at the networked storage system.
