Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for dynamic caching module selection for optimized data deduplication. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for dynamic caching module selection for optimized data deduplication is provided. The method includes processing historically relevant byte streams in each of a multiplicity of byte caching modules to populate a table of associations between different classifications of the historically relevant byte streams and correspondingly optimal ones of the multiplicity of the byte caching modules. The method also includes receiving a request to retrieve data from a data source and classifying the request. The method yet further includes consulting the table to identify, from amongst the multiplicity of byte caching modules, a particular byte caching module associated with the classification of the request. Finally, the method includes deduplicating the data in the identified byte caching module.
