First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for deduplicating data by a processor device, comprising:
- parsing the data to identify portions of metadata within the data; and
processing the data and identified portions of metadata by a deduplication engine to be storable in a single repository, the deduplication engine adapted for deduplicating the data without at least one of deduplicating and indexing the identified portions of metadata.

Abstract
Methods, computer systems, and computer program products for deduplicating data are provided. Data is parsed to identify portions of metadata within the data. The data and identified portions of metadata are processed by a deduplication engine to be storable in a single repository. The deduplication engine is adapted for deduplicating the data without at least one of deduplicating and indexing the identified portions of metadata.
