Abstract
An apparatus illustratively comprises at least one processing device that includes a processor and a memory, with the processing device being configured to obtain in a host device deduplication information relating to a logical storage device of a storage system, wherein the host device comprises acceleration resources and is configured to communicate with the storage system over at least one network, and to determine based at least in part on the obtained deduplication information whether to compute a content-based signature for one or more data blocks of the logical storage device utilizing the acceleration resources of the host device. Responsive to an affirmative result of the determining, the content-based signature is computed utilizing the acceleration resources of the host device and sent by the host device to the storage system in association with a given write operation that targets the one or more data blocks of the logical storage device.
