Abstract
Techniques can include performing sector aligned data deduplication for a sequence of pages including: performing a search phase and identifying a target set of one or more target pages, wherein a first target page of the target set is included in a second sequence of previously written pages; and performing an expansion phase including: based on the first target page, determining matches between i) pages of the first sequence, and ii) corresponding generated sector aligned pages each constructed from two logically consecutive pages of the second sequence given an offset; and determining, based on the expansion phase and the first target page, a set of sector aligned duplicates within the sequence of pages, wherein each sector aligned duplicate identifies a respective page of the sequence having its content from two stored pages which are aligned on the page boundary and are logically consecutive pages of the second sequence.
