Abstract
Embodiments for managing data storage by one or more processors are described. An object is created with deduplicated content. A lookup is created, which includes a name of the object and at least one of an address location of the deduplicated content and a byte range of the deduplicated content. The object and the lookup are transferred from a first computing system to a second computing system.
Claims21
A method, by one or more processors, for managing data storage, comprising:
- creating an object with deduplicated content;
- creating a lookup, wherein the lookup comprises a name of the object and at least one of an address location of the deduplicated content and a byte range of the deduplicated content;
- and
- transferring the object and the lookup from a first computing system to a second computing system.
A system for managing data storage, comprising:
- at least one processor that
- creates an object with deduplicated content;
- creates a lookup, wherein the lookup comprises a name of the object and at least one of an address location of the deduplicated content and a byte range of the deduplicated content;
- and
- transfers the object and the lookup from a first computing system to a second computing system.
A computer program product for managing data storage by one or more processors, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program code portions stored therein, the computer-readable program code portions comprising:
- an executable portion that creates an object with deduplicated content;
- an executable portion that creates a lookup, wherein the lookup comprises a name of the object and at least one of an address location of the deduplicated content and a byte range of the deduplicated content;
- and
- an executable portion that transfers the object and the lookup from a first computing system to a second computing system.
