Future of A-SIS de-dupe

radek_kubka — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 07:27:00 GMT

Hi,

This is a non-SAN specific question, yet fully applicable to SAN environment as well:

Can we expect (when?) aggregate-level de-duplication?

Current volume-level de-dupe is great anyway, yet taking this one step further would be nice!

Regards,
Radek

Great question. I'd like to take the question further, how about filer level dedup, cluster level dedup and beyond cluster with future releases?

These are all good questions, and topics regularly being discussed inside NetApp these days. Scalability of deduplication and continual performance improvements are of course both key objectives for our development team. While we can't disclose specific roadmap items on an open forum like this community, NDA roadmap presentations are available to NetApp customers and prospects via your NetApp account team.

Hey Larry,

It would be awesome if future versions of Dedupe worked at a more "Global" level like AGGR based.

I'd just like to add a strong (public) vote for aggregate level deduplication....will put NetApp even further ahead on the dedup playing field.

+1 for aggr level dedupe

+1 for 8.0/8.1 to have dedupe integration with coral striping (volume striping)

Since Coral got replaced in 8.0, that seems pretty unlikely!
