Abstract
Example implementations relate to deduplication operations in a storage system. An example includes receiving a stream of data units to be stored in a persistent storage of a deduplication storage system; determining an estimated matching cost of performing, on a set of data units of the received stream, a matching process of a deduplication operation of the deduplication storage system to generate a deduplicated version of the set of data units; determining an estimated storage cost for a non-deduplicated version of the set of data units that has not been deduplicated via the deduplication operation; and in response to a determination that the estimated storage cost exceeds the estimated matching cost, performing the matching process on the set of data units, the matching process using metadata of the deduplication storage system.
