Abstract

See full text

A system and method is disclosed for using data blocks to optimize file storage in electronic data storage. An example method includes storing a data file in electronic memory, where the data file includes a main block and a plurality of secondary blocks, with the main block including metadata that indicates respective locations of the secondary blocks relative to the main block. The method further includes performing a sparse operation of a data file to determine regions of the data file that contains unused space, determining blocks that are overlapped by the regions of the data file that contains unused space, removing the overlapped blocks, and storing the updated data file in an electronic database.
