Abstract: An LCS data compression/decompression system includes an orchestrator device in a resource system with a host operating system and coupled to a storage system via a network. The orchestrator device receives a read instruction from the host operating system directed to data stored in the storage system and, in response, retrieves and uses a data read decompression policy to select one of the storage system and the orchestrator device to perform data decompression operations on the data. The orchestrator device then provides a data read decompression instruction to the storage system to cause the storage system to provide the data to the orchestrator device such that the orchestrator device provides the data to the host operation system after the one of the storage system and the orchestrator device selected using the data read decompression policy performs the data decompression operations on the data.
