Abstract
A storage system may store one or more snapshots of a computing system to support backup and restoration of data stored at the computing system. The storage system may identify an expiration of a first snapshot indicating a first set of physical storage locations to which first data of the computing system was stored as part of a first backup procedure. The storage system may identify a first subset physical storage locations of the first set as storing a first portion of the first data that is superseded by second data associated with a second snapshot. Based on identifying the first subset, the storage system may delete the first portion of the first data from the first subset of physical storage locations and retain a second portion of the first data at a second subset of physical storage locations.
