Facilitating improved overall performance of remote data facility replication systems

A device, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
• evaluating a performance of a remote data facility replication system according to a defined performance metric, wherein the evaluating the performance is in response to receipt of a sequence of data blocks that are candidates for data reduction in the remote data facility replication system;
• comparing a value of a counter with a baseline value that indicates a threshold condition for compression of the sequence of data blocks, wherein the value of the counter is incremented based on a first determination that the compression of the sequence of data blocks is to be performed and decremented based on a second determination that the compression is not to be performed;
• and
• based on the value of the counter being more than the baseline value, facilitating the compression of the sequence of data blocks based on the evaluating the performance indicating that the data reduction of the sequence of data blocks increases the performance of the remote data facility replication system above a defined performance level.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, in response to execution, cause a system comprising a processor to perform operations, comprising:

• evaluating parameters of a remote data facility replication system, wherein the parameters are related to global system attributes and service performance expectations of the remote data facility replication system;
• adjusting a combined value of a counter based on respective values for the parameters determined based on the evaluating, wherein the adjusting comprises increasing the combined value of the counter based on a result of a determination being that a compression is to be performed, and decreasing the combined value of the counter based on the result of the determination being that the compression is not to be performed;
• and
• determining to perform the compression on a set of data based on the combined value of the counter satisfying a defined value, or to not perform the compression on the set of data based on the combined value of the counter failing to satisfy the defined value, wherein the defined value is a threshold value, the satisfaction of which indicates an acceptable condition for performance of the compression on the set of data.
