Abstract
A deduplicated microservices-based storage system and method running in a cloud includes frontend and backend microservice nodes that process requests from a plurality of clients and interface with a master node and one or more worker nodes connected as a network for deduplicating, storing and retrieving data from object storage. A custom metric compares demand on system resources to thresholds and dynamically scales resources to add or eliminate resources according to demand. The master node partitions the range of values identifying data similarity groups across the worker nodes, reassigns ranges of values using consistent hashing as worker nodes are scaled, and maintains a mapping of ranges of values to worker IP addresses.
