Efficient deduplication signature utilization

Abstract:

A data block may be received. Hash values correspond to portions of the data block may be generated. A determination that none of the plurality of hash values matches with another hash value associated with a previously received data block may be made. In response to determining that none of the plurality of hash values match with the other hash value associated with the previously received data block, a subset of the plurality of hash values may be stored based on a first alignment and a second alignment.
