Abstract

Inline deduplication is a technique that can reduce the amount of storage space used in a cloud environment. It can also improve restore and backup times. However, it is not always effective due to the various factors that affect the effectiveness of this process. For instance, the type of data that is stored and the method that is used to perform deduplication are all important factors that affect the effectiveness of this solution. The goal of this paper is to provide an overview of the various aspects of inline deduplication and its effectiveness in improving the performance and reducing the cost of storage in a cloud-based environment. We then conduct a case study to demonstrate the efficiency of this process in an Amazon Web Services instance. Experiments were able to demonstrate that in cloud environments, the level of deduplication that is achieved can improve performance and reduce the amount of storage space that is used. In case study, the use of inline deduplication on Amazon Web Services led to a 60% reduction in the storage space usage. After conducting a comprehensive analysis of the various aspects of inline deduplication, we concluded that it is a standard feature that can be used by cloud storage providers to reduce their costs and improve the performance of their customers.
