In an example, in response to an invocation by an application to update metadata related to a plurality of objects of a file system, an API may initialize a new metadata deduplication database based on an active metadata deduplication database that includes the metadata related to the plurality of objects and a deduplication key linked with the metadata. API may add new metadata to the new metadata deduplication database. API may associate a new deduplication key with the new metadata in the new metadata deduplication database. API may initialize a new translation database. API may add the new deduplication key to the new translation database.
