Abstract: Some examples relate to updating of metadata of objects in a file system. 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. API may associate the respective object IDs of the plurality of objects with the new deduplication key in the new translation database.
