    摘要: Utilizing different data compression algorithms based on characteristics of a storage system, including: selecting, in dependence upon a priority for conserving processing resources or storage resources in a storage system, a data compression algorithm to utilize to compress data; detecting that at least one of an amount of processing resources available in the storage system or the amount of space available to store additional data in the storage system has changed; and responsive to detecting that at least one of the amount of processing resources available in the storage system or the amount of space available to store additional data in the storage system has changed, selecting a different data compression algorithm to utilize to compress data.

    摘要: Converting data formats in a storage system: converting first data in a first format to second data in a second format, wherein second data in the second format includes a reference to the first data, wherein the first data and the second data are associated with a dataset, including updating the second data to include: a reference to first data associated with a portion of the dataset that precedes a data-converted portion of the dataset; second data associated with the data-converted portion of the dataset, wherein the second data associated with the data-converted portion of the dataset is in the second data format; and a reference to first data associated with a portion of the dataset that follows the data-converted portion of the dataset; and replacing first data associated with the data-converted portion of the dataset with a reference to the second data associated with the data-converted portion of the dataset.
