A Thorough Investigation of Content-Defined Chunking Algorithms for Data Deduplication

Marcel Gregoriadis, Leonhard Balduf, Björn Scheuermann +1

Data deduplication emerged as a powerful solution for reducing storage and bandwidth costs in cloud settings by eliminating redundancies at the level of chunks. This has spurred th…
