Abstract
Systems and methods for determining similarity between sets of objects are disclosed. A set of hashes are generated for a set of objects. A similarity vector is generated for the set of hashes. The similarity vector is a compact representation of the set of hashes and of the corresponding set of objects. The similarity of the set of objects is determined by comparing the similarity vector of the set of objects with other similarity vectors. In a data protection system, the set of objects can be placed with the node or system that stores objects that are most similar to the set of objects being placed.
