Abstract

A method for a data placement that attempts to predict the most suitable placement, in terms of data reduction, of a newly created storage volume based on the volumes known attributes and the current placement of volumes to deduplication domains is disclosed. The system uses machine learning to perform improved deduplication-aware placement. The system attempts to predict the deduplication domain where a newly created volume would eventually have the best content sharing. The system does this by using the known attributes of the volume at the time of creation, such as owner, volume name, initial size, creation time, and the history of data already in the system and its placement.
