A computer-implemented method for seeding a fingerprint cache for data deduplication associated with a single-instance-storage computing subsystem may comprise: 1) maintaining server-side fingerprint usage data for a plurality of fingerprints associated with data stored in the single-instance-storage computing subsystem and 2) building, based at least in part on the fingerprint usage data, a server-side fingerprint cache for use in client-side data deduplication, the server-side fingerprint cache comprising at least a subset of the plurality of fingerprints. The method may further comprise: 1) receiving a request for the server-side fingerprint cache from a client-side data deduplication computing subsystem and 2) transmitting data representative of the server-side fingerprint cache to the client-side data deduplication computing subsystem for use in client-side data deduplication associated with the single-instance-storage computing subsystem. Other exemplary fingerprint cache seeding and data deduplication methods, as well as corresponding exemplary systems and computer-readable media, are also disclosed.
