File systems are designed to control how files are stored and retrieved. Without knowing the context and semantics of file contents, file systems often contain duplicate copies and result in redundant consumptions of storage space and network bandwidth. It has been a complex and challenging issue for enterprises to seek deduplication technologies to reduce cost and increase the storage efficiency. To solve such problem, researchers proposed in-line or offline solutions for primary storages or backup systems at the subfile or whole-file level. Some of the technologies are used for file servers and database systems. Fewer studies focus on the cloud file system deduplication technologies at the application level, especially for the Hadoop distributed file system. It is the goal of this paper to design a file deduplication framework on Hadoop distributed file system for cloud application developers. The architecture, interface, and implementation experiences are also shared in this paper.

The Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is used to solve the storage problem of huge data, but does not provide a handling mechanism of duplicate files. In this study, the middle layer file system in the HBASE virtual architecture is used to do File Deduplicate in HDFS, with two architectures proposed according to different requires of the applied requirement reliability, therein one is RFD-HDFS (Reliable File Deduplicated HDFS) which is not permitted to have any errors and the other is FD-HDFS (File Deduplicated HDFS) which can tolerate very few errors. In addition to the advantage of the space complexity, the marginal benefits from it are explored. Assuming a popular video is uploaded to HDFS by one million users, through the Hadoop replication, they are divided into three million files to store, that is a practice wasting disk space very much and only by the cloud to remove repeats for effectively loading. By that, only three file spaces are taken up, namely the 100% utility of removing duplicate files reaches. The experimental architecture is a cloud based documentation system, like the version of EndNote Cloud, to simulate the cluster effect of massive database when the researcher synchronized the data with cloud storage.
