1. A method comprising:
- at a client device comprising a processor and memory, parsing a data stream to identify one or more uncompressed data chunks for transmission to a networked storage system;
compressing each uncompressed data chunk to produce a respective compressed data chunk; and
transmitting each compressed data chunk to the networked storage system via a network for storage at the networked storage system.

Abstract
Techniques and mechanisms described herein facilitate the transmission of a data stream to a networked storage system. According to various embodiments, a data stream may be parsed to identify one or more uncompressed data chunks for transmission to a networked storage system. Each uncompressed data chunk may be compressed to produce a respective compressed data chunk. Each compressed data chunk may be transmitted to the networked storage system via a network for storage at the networked storage system.
