Abstract
Data segments are logically organized in clusters in a data repository of a data storage system. Each clusters contains compressed data segments and data common to the compression of the segments, such as a dictionary. In association with a write request, it is determined in which of the clusters would the data segment most efficiently be compressed, and the data segment is stored in that data cluster.
