  • Publication number: 20140244604
    Abstract: The subject disclosure is directed towards predicting compressibility of a data block, and using the predicted compressibility in determining whether a data block if compressed will be sufficiently compressible to justify compression. In one aspect, data of the data block is processed to obtain an entropy estimate of the data block, e.g., based upon distinct value estimation. The compressibility prediction may be used in conjunction with a chunking mechanism of a data deduplication system.
