Abstract

Embodiments for data deduplication in a data deduplication environment by one or more processors. A data extent, existing on a remote server instance, may be denoted as a virtual base extent to eliminate redundant transfer of the data extent for fast data deduplication in a distributed data protection environment. A synchronization operation is performed to replace the virtual base extent with actual data via a replication process.
