Systems, methods, and computer readable media for lazy compression of data incoming to a data storage entity are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method for lazy compression of data incoming to a data storage entity includes defining at least a portion of the data storage area within the data storage entity as a compressed logical unit for storing at least some data in compressed form; receiving a command to write data to the compressed logical unit, and, in response to receiving the command to write data to the compressed logical unit, writing the data in uncompressed form; and monitoring for a trigger condition, wherein, upon detection of a trigger condition, at least a portion of the uncompressed data within the compressed logical unit is compressed.

Described are techniques for determining noteworthy events. A client performs a first call to a first routine having a first interface. The first interface includes a first set of input parameters specifying noteworthiness criteria indicating which event occurrences in a sequence of event occurrences are noteworthy. The client performs a second call to a second routine having a second interface to record an event occurrence of the sequence. The second routine perform processing returning information to the client including an indicator value denoting whether the event occurrence is noteworthy. In response to receiving the indicator value, the client may perform an action if the indicator value denotes that the event occurrence is noteworthy.
