Abstract
A system receives a stream of fingerprints, which correspond to segments of a data file, from a source of the data file, and identifies fingerprints in the stream of fingerprints as fingerprints formatted by a first fingerprint format or a second fingerprint format. If a fingerprint, in the stream of fingerprints, does not duplicate any fingerprint in a fingerprint cache, the system stores the non-duplicate fingerprint in a first storage tier corresponding to the first fingerprint format or a second storage tier corresponding to the second fingerprint format. The system requests a segment of the data file, which corresponds to the non-duplicate fingerprint, from the source of the data file. The system receives the requested segment of the data file from the source of the data file, and stores the received segment of the data file in destination storage.
