Abstract
A data storage subsystem having a plurality of data compression engines configured to compress data, each having a different compression algorithm. A data handling system is configured to determine a present rate of access to data; select at least one sample of data; determine the greatest degree of compression of said data compression engines; determine the compression ratios of the operated data compression engines with respect to the selected sample(s); compressing said selected at least one sample with a plurality of said data compression engines at said selected tier; operate a selected data compression engines with respect to the selected sample and determine the greatest degree of compression of the data compression engines; compress the data from which the sample was selected with one of the operated data compression engines determined to have the greatest degree of compression; and store the compressed data in data storage repositories.
